Brody, Faith and Pink!

I needed entertained today so I thought I would share with you a few videos!!!

Here is a video of my adorable nephew playing hockey. He is number 87 (picked it because his favorite is Sidney Crosby of the Pittsburgh Penguins). He is the one in the blue jersey and white helmet.



The next video I want to share is one I posted yesterday on my Instagram and Facebook.  It is my cat Faith...I was not sure which cat was unrolling the toilet paper as soon as I hang it up so I tried it out the other day and caught her red handed! HA!



And finally, I wanted to share a couple videos from the Pink concert! She was sooo good so I wanted to share it with you!

In this first one; Pink is hanging from the bottom of the pink chandelier and then climbs to the top and stands up there and dances and sings!



And in this second video; Pink in connected to each side of the ceiling by four cables and she literally flys all around the venue!  It was so amazing...the whole time she is singing!



I hope you enjoyed the videos and I hope you all have a great day!

What was your favorite concert you have ever attended? Do you have a favorite performer? Do you video your fur babies? What are you up to this week?

 HUGS to you all!

Day six-zip lining and dinner

In the afternoon, we were scheduled to go zip lining with my friend Mariela (that I came to visit) and my mom and her friend.

Before we were ready to head out, I spent a little time at the pool!!! It was completely awesome!! Our weather has been amazing!!!!!

Here we are at zip lining!!! Checked in and wearing our helmets!!! The hills we were zipping through are behind us!!!


Here is my mom and her friend...

And here is me and Mariela...


While we were zipping, we passed tons of trees with pineapple guava!!! We picked them right off the trees and ate them-they were sooo delish!!!

The red ones tasted like strawberry and the yellow like pineapple!!! So yummy!  You eat the whole thing...skin and all!!!

Here is a cute one of Mariela and my Mom!!!


Here is a pic of the zip line and trees...

I am leaving you today with a few pictures of some adorable cats! We had dinner at Keiko’s Paradise restaurant and there was an adorable stray cat and her two kittens living near the outdoor patio. They stopped to visit while we were eating! Soooo cute!!!

This tiny girl on the wall is mom...

And here are her kittens...such cuties!!! I fed them my steak so they would stay around longer!!!  I am definitely missing my cats!!!!

I hope everyone is having a great week!!! I miss my babies at home and I think we are all getting on each other’s nerves at this point so it is time to head home! Lol! We fly home soon but I can re-live my trip anytime through my blog!!! 

Hugs to you all and mahalo for reading and following!!!

Day five-strolling, beaching, pool sitting and sunsets

Happy Thursday from Kauai, Hawaii all!!! I can’t believe the week is almost over-it sure goes quick when you are on vacation!!!!

Today we had no excursions planned so it was a nice chill day spent mostly with a little hike and time on the beach.

We ended trying a walk at the Kukoiolono Park  Here is a picture from the path...

Another...I loved this flower!!!


After our little (and very hot) walk we went home to spend a few hours laying on the beach.

We ended up at the Shipwreck Beach...

Ahhhhh...

Here I am swimming out to sea-the waves are crazy out there!!!


And I’m on the right in this photo...I look so dark in this photo!!!! Wow!!!


I will leave you with pictures of the beauty of the beach!!




My mom bringing her chair from the shade to the sun to hang with me for a while...


After a few hours at the beach we went to the pool for a while longer and then showered for dinner...here is my mom and I before dinner! We shopped a little at the stores in Kukui’ula Village Shopping Center and then went to dinner.


We had dinner at Kiawe Roots  It was a recommendation from my friend Mariela and it ended up being fantastic! Not only was it reasonably priced the food was delicious! They have a really cool patio in the open air so it makes your dining experience even better.


Here is my meal. I had a brisket sandwich...sooo yummy!


After dinner, we went down to watch the sunset...enough said!!!


Here is the sunset filmed in high speed - it turned out awesome!!!!

Nighty nite! Hope you all have a wonderful Friday!!!!

Hugs!

Day four - evening at Spouting Horn

Hi everyone!!! My last post was really long so rather than append it; I am adding a part two onto day four. LOL!

Before dinner we decided to stop by the Spouting Horn Natural wonder. It was super neat- you can read all about it here.

The pictures are pretty but I cannot do this place justice with pictures alone.


So below is a video so you can see what it is all about!! Super cool and the sound it makes every time it spouts is unreal!!!

Day four - Capt. Andy’s Na Pali Snorkel Picnic Sail

Good morning guys! Hope everyone is good! Can’t believe it is day four already!!! I have recap dinner last night and then get into explaining our amazing day four!!!

Last night we had an amazing dinner! We decided it should be our splurge night so we made reservations and a fine dining restaurant right on the water in Kauai called The Beach House.

It did not disappoint!!! Here is the view when we arrived a little early for our reservation... beautiful sunset!!!

This little guy just finished surfing while we were there-he was so good and so adorable...look for him in about five years to go pro!!!


Here are my mom and her friend Sandy toasting their fancy drinks! I had to get a picture because they both said it the best drink they ever had!!!! Sandy is in the left and she had Missionary’s downfall and Mom is on the right and she had a Monkeypod Mai Tai. I had water - lol!

This is the view from our dinner table. We asked for a window-how amazing is this view?!?!? Soo breathtaking!!! Our waiter was Mervin and he was spot on with all of his recommendations and the food and service was phenomenal!!!!! PS - the rolls are awesome too!!!


So our day four adventure was Capt. Andy’s Napoli Coast Snorkel Picnic Sail. You can read about it here.  It was a six hour deal that included breakfast, lunch, snorkeling and a catamaran ride along the Na Pali coast of Kauai, Hawaii.

Here we are just on the boat!!


And here is the beautiful coastline.


We drove along and got amazing pictures of waterfalls, caves and cliffs.  We also stopped multiple times to watch sea turtles swimming along and dolphins playing and racing our boat! They like to play in the wake the catamaran makes!! Sooo cool!!! See if you can spot them!!! I swear - the dolphin jumps totally out at the end!

Video 1 HERE

Video 2 HERE


Beautiful!!!


Gods beauty really is unsurpassed!


I was amazing how blue the water was and how massive the cliffs were!


Another waterfall!


It was soooo pretty...the pictures do not do it justice!!! This is where we all got in and snorkeled around-it was so cool!!!!

Another beautiful cliff...


This is where they show a helicopter landing in the Jurassic Park movie...the first one was filmed here.


Our tour guide and captain Sterling said this is the most photographed part of Na Poli coast...you know I wanted to show it to you guys!!!! Beautiful!!!!


Secluded beaches all over the coastline...

Day three - Heritage Trail hike Kauai

Hi everyone!!! Aloha from Kauai!!! I hope everyone is well!!

Today we had a day without any plans so we decided to go for a hike along the Kauai shoreline. We saw online that there was a trail called the Heritage Trail that runs from Shipwreck Beach (1 mile walk from our house) to Punahua Point.

The walk starts at the point where the kids jump off into the sea.  He is as close as we would get to the sea. Here is the whole gang.

Here is me and my mother!!!


Video of the most beautiful spot on the trail in my humble opinion HERE

Another great selfie with a glorious view!!!


Along the way we encountered this beautiful pond!!





Beautiful scenery with beautiful people!


BFFs




Here is a short video that will give you an idea about how amazing the view was...

Video HERE...



At the end of the trail we came to a cave (that was closed) and this sanctuary  A wonderful lady rescues turtles that have grown too big for homes and cares them while using them to control weeds and non-native plants that are overtaking the area.


This is Maurice...


This is the end of the hike. A beautiful beach that is home to monk seals and sea turtles. So pretty!!!!

The whole hike was supposed to be 3.7 miles but the total hike from from door to the end and home was

10.5 miles so my legs are shot for the day. It was a ton of up and down rock edges and sand. The views were totally worth it but I am beat!!!

If you ever get the chance the hike heritage trail in Kauai....I highly recommend it!!!! Amazing views you will not see from below!!!
