Hangin Loose in Kauai :)

Today I'm grateful for....



Internet availability at my hotel--it's my last day here, just posting an early blog, photos to follow.

The ability to text, send photos and call half way around the world all from my phone--on the beach, on my balcony, from the boat on the Na Pali coast where ever.



All shades of blue.



Falling asleep to the music of the waves.



My love of the sea.



Feeling grounded once again and knowing where I belong.



The joy on my daughters faces at all the new sights and things they have experienced since we've been here.



Being brave and doing things no one in my family is brave enough to do----until I do them ;)



Sun, toes in the sand, beautiful sunsets, native men--yummy, saltwater, good surf, snorkeling!



Mango chicken, backyard ma hi ma hi, lemon grass rice, free mai tai hour!



Breakfast buffet on the ocean every morning with scrambled eggs, fresh braised veggies, fresh fruit, and fresh juice!



Knowing that I will come back here and hike the trail to the Na Pali coast to camp on the sea shore with people I love.



Our boat captain taking us into the sea caves!!!



Our lovely helicopter flight over the entire island and into the canyon, felt so close to the walls we could almost touch the water falls.



The drive up into the canyon, the view, the ten degrees temperature difference at the top--breathtaking.



Jones for inspiring this trip and paving the way for me to be bold, to sink down comfortably into my own skin. I think I just needed permission, strange as that may sound.

The people I love are creating good things in their lives.

Another huge blog to follow once I get home and get rested.

Aloha for now.
