Hello everyone!
It’s Thursday, 7:30pm Hawaii time and Friday, 1:30am EST.
I’m currently sitting in an airport lounge in Honolulu waiting for our flight home. I have a few hours to kill, so I’ve decided to tell you about the last island we visited while on the cruise.
The last cruise port on June 29-30, was Kauai, sometimes called the “Garden Isle“. Hubby and I really loved everything about this island. From lush green valleys to sharp mountain spires and jagged cliffs, the views were breathtakingly stunning.
Poipu Beach Park
A little scuba diving to finish out the cruise….
Hubby is a okay!
We encountered a pair of whitetip sharks.
Sorry about the poor quality of the underwater photos…I was the photographer. 😦
Thank you for allowing me to share this experience with you. Since the cruise, we spent some time on the Big Island, also known as Hawaii. I will follow-up with some posts of resort wear & our #1 reason for visiting Hawaii.
Until then, Mahalo & Aloha!

What a beautiful photos and I think you had a great time !
Thank you!
We had such a wonderful time…really! 🙂
The pictures are just beautiful and you guys look like you’re having a great time. You had the presence of mind to take the picture of the shark — brave soul! When I saw that first picture with the trees over the road, it brought back memories. We were driving down that same road and Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody came on the radio. Seemed fitting in that moment with the towering trees and grandeur of the scene.

Yes, we really loved Kauai!
I haven’t been to Hawaii in years, but it looks amazing. Thanks for sharing!
It was a first time for me, and It was truly wonderful!
Great photos! Didn’t now you did SCUBA! i’ve been diving for a few years, and won’t mess with cameras yet – too busy trying not to drown! Really enjoyed your reporting on the vacation! Kauai seems like the place to be…
Thanks daisyfae!
I’m still a novice diver, but I enjoy it very much! Kauai diving was good, but you should really go diving in Kona!
Absolutely stunning. I certainly hope you have enjoyed yourselves while you have slowly killed off a certain reader (every time I have read one of your posts and see your pics, I think, “she’s killing me”). Safe journey home!
Haha! Glad you enjoyed the photos. It was a wonderful vacation.
It’s laundry day today tho….brought home a suitcase full of dirties. “A woman’s work is never done.”
Have a great weekend, Bliss!
I am most impressed with the Na Pali coast pics and for even attempting underwater photos!
The famous Na Pali Coast…glad I got to see it in person!
Taking photos underwater is not so easy….the subjects wouldn’t stay still! 🙂
Majestic!!!
Yep!! 🙂
Thank you so much for sharing your trip! What a wonderful way to celebrate God’s creations!! Hope you have a safe journey home.
Thanks Pam! I’m home and doing some laundry.
You’re so right about enjoying God’s creations…absolutely breathtaking!
Gorgeous!!! Can’t wait to you’re back and we can hear all of the details!
I’m back! Gosh, I have so much laundry to do!! 😦
It was one of the best vacations ever!
Jeannie, safe travels home. I agree with the above commenter, the Na Pali coast pics are fabulous!

The Na Pali coast picture is awesome.
