Ahhhhh Hawaii....how relaxing, beautiful and down right amazing! Chris and I just got back from a little get away just the two of us... from you guessed it, Hawaii. We went to Maui and stayed on the south shore in the area of Wailea. It's astounding how beautiful the surroundings are there. I was in awe the entire time that we were there.
We did so many things, but mostly relaxed. Words can't even express the feeling of laying on the beach, soaking in the rays and breathing in the amazingly fresh air. They were moments that I will NEVER forget. We loved it so much that we are already planning our next vacation there.
As some of the pictures show, we went to a luau which was SOO much fun! If you ever get the chance to go to Hawaii, definitely take the time to go to a good luau. What an experience it was. They express so much culture and feeling through their dancing. I was moved so much that I wanted to get up and start doing the hula with the dancers. I realized that it's not only the hip movement of the dance, but the hand movements and motions that tell the story in more debth.
We sat on the beach every evening and looked at the stars and the beautiful moon. How romantic, let me tell ya. :o) We also of course ate at some amazing restaurants, one of which we took the picture of the sunset through the palm trees. Talk about beautiful!!! As I said earlier, I couldn't help but be in awe the whole time. Oh I almost forgot, one night after dinner there was an astonomer who had his telescope set up to look at Saturn. I have never had the chance to look at Saturn behind the power of a telescope lens. It was so amazing to see it's rings and the moons that orbit it. I honestly felt like I was in heaven with all of the out of this world things I was able to experience.
This trip will forever be implanted in my memory. My only hope is that the next time I get to enjoy it's beauty, I will be able to share it with my children. I can already picture Breanna playing to her hearts delight in the ocean waves.
Ahhh Hawaii.... how beautiful!!!
