More From Kauai

Aloha! Lets see if I can remember how this blogging thing works. I think I'm supposed to write a little bit about what Jackie and I have been up to and maybe post a picture or two that illustrates our life here in paradise. Well the 1st part should be easy enough cause how hard can it be to say not much. Pretty much the same old same old. I can tell you that the weather this week has been outstanding. Jackie and I have gone snorkeling twice and both times the conditions were ideal, very little wind chop and temps in the low 80's. We saw our normal assortment of fish as well as a few large eels. We also had the chance to talk story with a few of our visitors. Always a lot of fun to meet and talk with different people. Seems when people are on vacation they are much more relaxed and willing to shoot the breeze with strangers they have met at the beach. Too bad things can't be as relaxed in the real world. Now for the 2nd part that could prove to be a little harder than it was. My underwater camera finally gave up the ghost and the camera I got to replace it is not an underwater one nor is it nearly as tough so consequently I can't take it to the beach as easily. The other one I could just toss it in a bag or my pocket. This one takes better photos but I need to be a lot more careful with it so if we are going to the beach to snorkel this camera stays home! Some day I will probably get another camera like I had but for now I can find other uses for Jackie's money!
