happiness in hawaii

When having to choose between renovating our bathroom or going to Hawaii over the holidays, it was a no brainer for me.

Our toilet still needs replacing, but my soul feels replenished!

It felt like like a homecoming, being with the ocean and the mountains. And I was in heaven seeing such a variety of Polynesian dance at the Polynesian Cultural Center.

Words can do no justice to the beauty of Hawaii, so I shall leave you with these images. May they bring you feelings of awe, inspiration and joy, which we could all use a dose of this new year.

E ho mai i ka ‘ike
E ho mai i ka ikaika
E ho mai i ke akamai
E ho mai i ka maopopo pono
E ho mai i ka ‘ike papalua
E ho mai i ka mana
