We had one fantastic day yesterday... We "splurged" a bit and rented a cabana at the Lihue Marriott. We have done this in the past, as guests of the hotel, but weren't sure if they would allow non-guests to rent them. But they did! It worked out great with the kids (especially keeping Luke cool, in the shade.) We even got both Samuel and Luke to nap AT THE SAME TIME in the cabana! Woo-Hoo! I told Joe it felt like "old times" with us being all by ourselves. We even quickly ran out into the ocean together for about 15 seconds... felt like a real date! :-)
We stayed at the Marriott from 9am until about 4pm, so it was well-worth the drive! We got Samuel some sand toys and he enjoyed playing with them all day. Joe did take him into the water and they got taken down by a big wave, so Samuel wasn't very pleased about that. I had to work with him later, to get back into the ocean (we just jumped the little waves for awhile.)
Then we got home, Joe ordered a pizza and we all went to bed early. It was one FUN day, but we were all pretty tired out.
Today is our last full day... BIG SAD SIGH... we have had such a fun vacation together, and are really glad we took this trip. It will be hard to transition back into our "normal" life (well... somewhat normal, given Joe is still on leave from work through mid-December.) It has been one blessing of a summer, together as a family!!!
