Kauai is K'Awesome

We found a great breakfast place called the Bamboo Grill. We have had French toast, pancakes, corned beef and eggs, kimchi fried rice, steak moco loco and chickens for company. We love this place. 

This parrot lives in the resort and cat calls girls. Not sure why they haven't scared it off yet. 

Here is one of the Kauai pets. They run the island. 

Duke's dessert was delicious. We had macadamia nut ice cream pie. 

Here is the next day breakfast. Today we got up. Ate. Then I learned how to surf. 

We fed our left over stuff to the chickens. It was kind of cute. 

Here I am out on the board waiting my turn. 

Waving hi after I caught a wave. 

All done. It was a good workout. Really fun. 

After surfing we picked up the rental car and headed to North Shore. 

Bridget loved this soap shop. They made them all right there. 

Where the magic happens. 

The Kalaeua light house. 

They have boobies. We found some. 

Baby booby.

Na Pali coast from the light house. 

One of the many beaches on the north shore. Hanalei bay. 

 Note the rainbow behind Bridget. 

See the rain bow!

I'm blowing a rainbow out of my nose and it almost hit Bridget! I'm so magestic that I snot rainbows. All joking. This was a hard selfie to take. 

Kauai and 9 years

Carla watched the kids so we could go to Hawaii for our 9 anniversary.  We arrived to the hotel and it felt like 139 am. But it was 839. We looked at the coy pond and went to bed. 

The next morning we woke to watch the sunrise over the bay. 

We ate breakfast at the Bamboo grill. We learned that chickens run all over the island. This one walked into the restaraunt we were eating in. 

We read and relaxed and drank piña coladas while listening to the waves crash. 

Notice our little buddy. 

We went to a Luau for dinner. It was pretty fun. But Poi tastes like chalk. 

Look at these weird goats. 

Birds are so used to being fed at the luau that they perched on my hand. 

This is the Kalua Pork. Mmm cooked with hot rocks for 9 hours underground. The only seasoning was salt. Pigs are magical wonderfully delicious creatures. They taste so good that poi is edible. Here is the dirt covered pit. 

They remove the dirt. 

Then the tarp and banana leaves. 

Then they uncover the pig. 

And pull it out. 

Here we are at the dinner table. 

Hula dancers. 

This is a Philippine dance. 

For her anniversary present. Bridget got a ring.
