Vacation time!

My travel assignment is over! Now I get to enjoy Hawaii without stressing about that job. And it gets better... One of my nearest, dearest and oldest friends, Caitlin, arrived a few days ago. We've been driving all over the island and beaching it up. She is already so tan! I don't think anyone would believe that i'm the one that's been living here for the last 3 months. Yesterday morning we drove to the Byodo-In buddhist temple that is an exact replica of the 900 year-old Byodo-In Temple in Uji, Japan. It was so peaceful and beautiful. I couldn't resist and bought a golden piggy bank at the gift shop.








Lanikai beach was where we spent the afternoon. The water is aquamarine and you have a lovely view of a couple of small islands off in the distance. We plan on going back to kayak out to those islands.





Shawn is back from working on Kauai so we are off to explore some more of the island today.
