In 1985 I visited Kauai for five days and fell in love with it's beauty. When I returned on this cruise I felt exactly the same. Hubby said it was indeed the most beautiful island. We have plans to return at some point and spend a month during the winter, that way we can explore every aspect of this gorgeous island.


Hubby taking a picture of the two of us before we went to dinner the second time at the steakhouse with the Judge and Paula. See that beautiful necklace? Empress Bee of muffin53 made that and it's even prettier in person. If you want to order something pretty from Miss Bee go HERE. Thank you Miss Bee, I got lots of compliments on this piece.

I'm going to end our Hawaii posts with my beloved towel animals. Our suite was pretty full by the end of our cruise. I told all of them goodbye and also warned them that the room stewards were going to take them away, but that they would remake them for other guests to enjoy. Thanks for coming along on our cruise. I hope you enjoyed it half as much as we did.


The last two towel pieces I intentionally saved for the last piece of this post. The caterpillar was made by Miss Novi (room steward) the first night on board, and the heart the last sea day. We gave her our tip for taking such good care of us for two weeks and when we returned to our suite to pack she had made this heart. It made both of us smile.

It's Wednesday so that means it's question time. There isn't a right or wrong answer to this question as everyone has different opinions on any given issue.

So here's this weeks question:

Do you prefer to experience all four seasons or would you be happy living in the cold or the very warm all year long?

At the office, where I worked, there was an angel there.
Her hair was long and flowing, and her skin was soft and fair.
I wanted so, to ask her out, but I was way too shy.
I thought she was too beautiful, for me to even try.
A few times I approached her, she just smiled and walked away.
I could not get the courage up, and "Hi" was all I'd say.
Then, I had an idea, I would get her home address,
And send a VALENTINE to her, and with it I'd express.

I poured my heart out in the card, and ask her to be mine,
and then I dropped it in the mail, my special VALENTINE.
In just a few short days, I had a response in my mail,
A card with her return address, I started feeling pale.
I opened up my eyes to see, a card shaped like a heart,
And in the center, someone drew, a bloody piercing dart.
I opened up the card to see, if writing was inside,
And when I started reading it, I darn near almost died.

"I'd love to be your VALENTINE, but I think I will pass,
My husband says he'll be at work, to kick your stupid ass.
I'm glad you like my body, and you thinks it's really fine,
My husband says this card is going, where the sun doesn't shine.
In your card, you said there's things to me you'd love to do,
I think my husband's going to do, all of those things to you.
So, have a happy VALENTINES, I'll see you Monday morn,
My husband says on Tuesday, you'll wish you were never born."

Hat tip: Phil of Phils Phun

In old Hawaii, if you had broken a law, the penalty was death. Perhaps you had entered into an area that was reserved for only the chiefs, or had eaten forbidden foods. Laws, or kapu, governed every aspect of Hawaiian society. The penalty for breaking these laws was certain death. Your only option for survival is to elude your pursuers and reach the nearest puuhonua, or place of refuge.

As you enter, the great wall rises up before you marking the boundaries between the royal grounds and the sanctuary. Many ki'i (carved wooden images) surround the Hale o Keawe, housing the bones of the chiefs that infuse the area with their power or mana. If you reached this sacred place, you would be saved.

Of course we stopped for Kona coffee. You can't go to Kona without having some Kona coffee. It's the kapu.
