Day 1 at the beach (Poipu)

taking it all in

David tried scuba diving right off the coast. He decided to stick with snorkeling.

she loved playing in the sand but wasn't a big fan of the waves coming in over her toes

she loved my sun hat just as much as I did

Tunnels Beach: awesome snorkeling. In our top 2 favorite spots for this trip. At Tunnels, we found the best snorkeling was in the outer reef.  It was slightly alarming to look back to shore and realize we were more than a football field's length from shore. We saw several sea turtles, an eel, incredible coral, and a variety of beautiful fish. Our other favorite snorkel spot was Ke'e, which was right at the trail head for the Na Pali coast hike. 

It was so fun to be there with all of my siblings! Annika had good bonding time with each of them.

Waimea Canyon: the Grand Canyon of the Pacific. It was AWESOME! David and Dustin did a helicopter tour of the island on our last full day in Kauai. David definitely saw some awesome sites and things we weren't able to see by foot. But, he said that our view of the canyon was better on the ground from this lookout point than in the helicopter.  It was about a 1.5 hour drive from Princeville, and up a very windy road, but definitely worth it.
