These are just a few of the pictures from the most relaxing vacation of my life! In April, my family embarked on a 16 day cruise to Hawaii from San Diego. It was truly amazing -- I'd highly recommend it! I hope to add more photos in the future, but here are just a few of the highlights. This photo was taken on board MS Statendam as we sailed past the Napali Coast of Kauai. This is another photo of the Napali Coast. It's just an amazing sight to see steep, rugged terrain covered in such thick, green vegetation. For most people, it's only accessible by air and sea. There are trails that span the scenic coastline. One of these days I hope to return to Kauai with some friends and do a backpacking trip along the Napali Coast. We saw several dolphins while sailing to a popular snorkeling spot off the coast of Kauai. They were jumping out of the water and putting on quite a show for us. Unfortunately, I couldn't take the pictures quick enough when the dolphins were jumping.
