Miss Monk Seal 2010

Show me soft and cuddly...





Show me bashful...




Show off that great tail...












So sad to say goodbye...

Best Day Yet

Spent the morning at the most beautiful beach on Kauai
Shipwreck Beach

























































































Spent the afternoon driving to the North Shore


















Got some snuggles in


















Ended the afternoon with a giant shave ice

Why did the chickens cross the road?

'Cuz Andrew was sharing his goldfish

Hiking Waimea Canyon

Beginning our hike to see the views of Waimea Canyon.
No kiddie backpack-- everybody has to hike this trial with their own two feet. Hiking the "Grand Canyon of the Pacific" is going to be no problemo.
























Here we go....
Wow, this trail is a bit steep.
What did the trail map mean when it said, "steep grade?"


















Pit stop: we need water and some trail mix.



















Andrew took off and led the way for a bit.
Prego Mom couldn't keep up.
























Hooray for us!! We did it!!
























And the views were totally worth it!



































So proud of his first real hike

KAUAI II: Chickens and Monk Seals

Adventures at Spouting Horn

































Kauai is full of chickens. Legend goes that Hurricane Iniki freed all the chickens from their coops. We just loved chasing them.






































The look of defeat... didn't catch one yet.



















The cutest little monk seal

Even though George didn't get to come on this adventure, we promise that once his sea tour is over, we won't take any vacations without him.
