Fall Break: Part I

 For Fall break this year we traveled to Kauai, Hawaii with our framily. It was a direct flight from Phoenix and about a 5.5-hour flight. It felt very long, but we arrived and were excited to start the vacation. Once we got our bags we waited a long time for the dads to get the rental minivan that we always get for the framily, but Andy pulled up in a convertible Camaro and surprised Max. Since all of us could not fit each family rented a Camaro. Max was super excited. And this kicked off the start of our vacation.


The first morning Max and I woke up and walked to Starbucks for drinks, fruit and a beautiful view of the sunrise.





We rented the kids' boogie boards and headed to the beach.









On the second day, we went to the local farmer's market in the morning where we got some fresh fruit to try later in the week. Max also got some Hawaiian BBQ pork on a stick amongst some other snacks.


We headed to Tunnels beach for the afternoon. Now this beach was beautiful and Andy said the snorkeling was good due the reef. 





As you know, Max can sleep anywhere and that includes Tunnels beach. We had to move his head from one side to the other while he was sleeping so his face wouldn't get burned. 





We had family pictures that night and you can see a sneak peek of the pictures on their blog here:

Since we were all dressed up we headed to the Bistro for dinner. I will say this was the best meal I probably ate all week. It was the catch of the day prepared perfectly. We also had prosciutto and goat cheese balls for the appetizer and bacon-wrapped scallops. It was so good. Plus their drinks were great too!
