And more

I am having issues with blogger, specificially loading more than six pics at a time...so here is just another post of pics. TJ wishing he was on the cruise ship.

Cruise ship on the road! Cruise ship on the road!


Yes, this is a rooster, but here in Kauai they call these Wild Kauai Fowl.


This place was incredible. It is called Spouting horn. There is a couple of holes in the lava rock, so when waves come crashing in to the shoreline instead of coming up over the rock they come spouting up through this hole.



We went SNORKELING!!! It was probably my favorite part of the whole time. I floated with the fishes and breathed under water. I felt like ariel.

More Pics of Hawai'i

This is at Waimea Canyon. The drive up to the canyon was desert and dry and it looked a lot like UTAH...But at least the humidity told us we were in Hawai'i. This is much like a little Grand Canyon. And it is breathtaking. And so are TJ and I.


On our last jaunt we sat on a pier to watch a cruise ship go sailing out of the bay. And then we realized that there were maybe ten or twenty sea turtles right in front of us. ("It was either ten or twenty I don't know") The Hawaiian name for sea turtles is Honu. They are so cute.


This is a picture of the FORBIDDEN ISLAND, Ni'ihau. Apparently this place was purchased by some European family in the early eighteen hundreds. And they have not done a single thing with it. They say that if you land on the shore of Ni'ihau you will be promptly asked to leave. If you do not leave a gargantuan Hawaiian man will forcibly ask you to leave.


We sat under a tree to read and I looked up to see this. (Sigh)


This was at Queen's Bath as well. Aw!!! Cute.

A trip to the Garden Island KAUAI

Well now I can say that I've been to Hawai'i. I loved it and I didn't want to leave. Here are some pics to show you the beauty of it all...Snorkeling, Surfers, Statues, and other Stuff.


This was the view from our hotel restaurant. PARADISE!!!


Wailua Falls. BEAUTIFUL


Birds of Paradise. I was in paradise.

Kalalau Lookout.

TJ at Queen's Bath and his Superman Towel. He is so cute!

This was a crazy cool statue on our way to Queen's Bath. So Queen's Bath is this place you have to hike down a slippery red dirt trail to get to. But once you are there you are glad you took the trek. Basically the real thing looks like a big bathtub made out of lava rock. Sometimes the waves crash over the bath tub wall bringing in new varieties of fish to snorkel with. I stood on a rock for five minutes while hundreds of fish swarmed around me and between my legs. We found limpids and sea urchins that we forced off of their rocks to look at them. The sea urchins were beautiful and I almost began singing "Part of Your World" because my emotions were high.

A NEW CAR!!!


TJ and I bought a new 2005 Ford Focus. Some people like them some people don't, and I love mine. It is black and a beauty. Or maybe it is black and a Stallion. It's gender is still to be determined. All I know is it is HOTT! And we got a sweet deal.

One thing I'll really miss...


Ahhh Young Company Shakespeare. Some of my greatest friendships were formed in these casts. Oh how I will long for the van rides, the awkward conversations, and the silly things we would do.

Fallon: Um can you tell me how to get to Cafe Rio?
(Mrs. Miller playing loudly in the van "Strangerrrr's in the NIIIIGHT exchanging glances Waalking in the NIIIGHT what are the chances? DO BE DO BE DOOO BE DO BE DO BE"
And how can I forget the trick we played on Celeste or the fact that Lehi Utah is the Devil's Snare and we could never pass it without talking about something Taboo. I'll miss giggling through the prayers, Chris when he talked like a girl, all of the stories, and most of all everyone I grew so attached to acting with.
