With this post’s title, you see how hard it is to capture a “lyric” as I usually do with Music Monday posts when the subject of the day is a Bobby McFerrin freeform vocal jazz improvisation in front of 50 000 people. I found this via Reddit’s Frisson sub-Reddit which is dedicated to those moments […]
Well, we made it back from Hawaii and are now suffering that weird mix of happiness and sadness that you feel when you’re glad to be home after a period of time away but also wishing your holiday never had to come to an end. I was going to try to do a list of […]
Shea and I could’ve sat and watched this exhibit at the Maui Ocean Center for hours (except Pace was rushing to the shark tanks and it’s pretty hard to argue with that!)
Molokini is one of the world’s best scuba and snorkel spots. Shea and I went out yesterday for a tour and during the trip, I asked our guide to take our picture. I expected him to just snap a quickie from the surfboard where he was sitting watching our group but instead he hopped off […]
A few shots from our trip on the infamous “Road to Hana” today. You must stop for hot-from-the-oven banana bread around the halfway mark (coincidence – I have an Aunt Sandi who’s a major fan of all things Hawaiian!): The view of a black sand beach: One of the many waterfalls along the trail (the […]
Words can’t describe how much fun Pace had boogie boarding on Kamaole Sands III beach across from our Maui condo today. I literally had to carry him out of the water to get him to leave!
Spent the day on Anini Beach swimming with Honu, another amazing Kauai experience. Maui’s going to have to be pretty spectacular to compete with Kauai – everything from our condo and its ground-floor, watch the whales from your lanai, steps to a children’s playground location to the helicopter tour of the island to a visit […]
We’re a couple days into our trip and finally over our jet lag and the time change (four hours earlier than home) though Shea and I still find ourselves going to bed around 8pm (midnight at home) and getting up at 4am (8am at home) so far. We’re on Kauai’s east side so that’s okay […]
Here’s a list, roughly from most to least useful, of the sites, apps and other online resources I used in researching our trip to Hawaii. The links I’ve included are mostly to info about Kauai since that’s our first stop but most of these searches were repeated for Maui info. YouTube – I always think […]
…this is where I’ll be! (And with the waterproof case we got for my iPhone from Santa, this could very well be me taking this exact video! Of course, it was +6 in Regina today and a high of +19 (!) in Maple Creek, SK so, with Lihue Kauai coming in at +23, my timing […]
