Kaua’i Day 1

On Tuesday, we flew from 

Honolulu to the island of Kauai. 

It was about a 15 minute flight.

The girls got the luggage,

while I went to pick up the rental car.

We found a great Mexican place for lunch, and Harper loved every bite of her breakfast burrito.

On the way to the hotel, we passed 

through this tunnel of trees.

We arrived at the Grand Hyatt Kaua’i and all we could think was WOW!

It had 52 acres of prime oceanfront property 

and was simply gorgeous!

We got into our swimsuits and 

headed to one of the many pools. As soon as the girls got in the water, it started raining.

We quickly learned that if you don’t like the weather on Kaua’i, just wait 5 minutes because it will change.

This picture is literally from 5 minutes later 

and it’s totally sunny!

Next, we tried out the waterslide!  Harper went first.

Ashley quickly learned how fast the slide went!

It’s hard to describe how massive the pools were.  There were so many pools that all seemed 

to be connected by a lazy river

and there were waterfalls everywhere!

We met Rico, the hotel’s resident green wing macaw.

That night, we headed to Aloha Ramen.

Harper loved her shrimp ramen so much, that we went back later in the week so she could eat it again!
