Our first sunrise in Kauai 2012

Good morning friends~ How I wish I could have brought you all with me; hopefully you can pretend while you look at our photos.  I now remember the good and bad things about traveling here-the bad is that the flight is so long-eight hours in all and my feet swell.  This started about eight years ago and I know that I need to get up and move about more than I do, but I sure hate how my feet and ankles look when it happens. If any of you experience this and have tips for me, please share them.
 The good news is that by this morning they were back to normal and being here is All Good.  I did forget that with so many wild chickens about, there are bound to be roosters and they crowed all night long-so it does take us a day to get our bodies adjusted.  However, this is what we woke up to this morning.  We look right out of the beach and it's beautiful. I can just hear my girls saying "Ahh" and the grands wanting to come over.

We are still on Colorado time and although this was taken about 5:30 here, it was 9:30 at home.  I'm sure we will crash early tonight.  But for now, we are up and moving, swaying to the Hawaiin music on the radio; it is truly paradise.

I'm so in awe of our Creator who gives us so much beauty.  May your spirit soar today with His; may you find beauty all around you.

Aloha~Noreen
