megan and i ventured to hawaii after my mom gave us a time share for an anniversary present. we left december 9th (two days after my birthday one day after my last final) and got home december 18th, just in time for the big snow! we beat the winter rush and were able to fly stand-bye on alaska. we had a whole row to ourselves there and back on the 6 hour flight.
we spent a week at the westin princeville resort. it was definitely the sweetest hotel we have ever stayed at.
this was the view from our studio
sunset at the resort
hiking trail by ke'e beach
kilauea lighthouse
whale watching spot at the lighthouse
church in hanalei
we checked out a lot of beches for next time we go back...
kapaa beach
bubba's burgers are awesome
waioli beach
wailua falls
the only access to the napali coast is by boat, we hooked up with captain andy's boat tour and his 40 foot catamaran. it was sweet. on the boat we spotted turtles, spinner dolphins, bottle nose dophins, mantaray, humpback whales and crazy flying fish... it was awesome, the one thing we missed out on was snorkling because of all the run-off.
driftwood beach
the whole island was very chill. we look forward to going back some time soon to grab a burger at bubbas and do some snorkeling.
