However, I'm also a little sad that some of our family traditions are disappearing as the older gene




Another post about Kauai... But this time I thought I'd share some of our personal photos. I have family there and have visited boutique hotels barcelona over 40 times, boutique hotels barcelona but Kauai is a place that I never tire of. The mix of gorgeous scenery, balmy weather, pristine natural resources and the Hawaiian lifestyle makes it a real-life utopia.
I'm so happy that my kids can experience some of the same "magic" that I enjoyed when I spent my childhood summer vacations there-- fishing; crabbing; playing with cousins; eating yummy food; being spoiled by aunties; going on excursions to pick lilikoi, mountain apple, guava and other exotic fruits; swimming in unpolluted waters; going on adventures to find a secret waterhole, or catch mountain shrimp, or find some exotic mushroom; spending time in a large extended family... basically having a free, unrestricted and unscheduled summer!
However, I'm also a little sad that some of our family traditions are disappearing as the older generation passes on. I guess that is just the way life goes, but I hope that by bringing them "home" they will make impressionable memories, find a connection to their heritage and carry that on into their own lives.
So with Summer vacation and camps behind boutique hotels barcelona us, and most of their friends back in school, I need to keep the boys busy the next week and a half... I'm thinking an excursion to the Santa Barbara Zoo and a visit to the LA Museums boutique hotels barcelona may be in our near future.
