Not feeling 100%, the rest of the family went up to Waimea Canyon while I relaxed. That’s what vacation is all about, right? For me, this is a time to rejuvinate. For “Wexa” it is a time for exploration! So off to the canyon they went with the gang!

Even though Lupus prevents me from basking in the sun, I still love days at the beach! We had a sunshiny day with fairly strong winds…
After a good night sleep, I was up and ready to start the day! Still worn out from my work schedule, my plan was to take it easy.
Crazy summer comes to an end and vacation season begins! We start this “season” with a family vacation to our former home, Kauai. My kids were especially happy to their home turf!
After finishing this vacation, I went straight into work season! The last amazing stop never got posted… so before I begin sharing our current location, I will finish up with Edinburgh, Scotland!!! A “WOW” stop!
First sight… we arrived in Invergordon, the nearest port to Inverness. Openng my eyes, this was the first thing I saw! Such beautiful terrain. Check out the cute town! *** and yes, we sleep with the sliding door open! The sound of waves = good sleep!
Apparently, I overdid it downloading photos and gmail shut me down for “unusual activity”. Don’t they know me yet? It’s been a LONG time of me and travel photos! Anyway, back up and running… After an exhausting day in Northern Ireland, we decided not to take the tender to shore. I know! We should have visited Glasgow but it was a tender and a bus… just didn’t have it in me!
Our third and final stop for the day… Carrick-a-rede Bridge… Our fun begins with a 1.25 mile walk along this beautiful coastline. Again, flowers blooming and the terrain very green. Booking ahead to ensure free parking, we basically committed ourselves to this visit.
Next stop on our one day journey… Giant’s Causeway. Wow! We had a cruise booked in this same area but it was canceled during Covid shutdown. This was on our list of “must see” locations. From the port, it is about an hour and a half drive… roundabout after roundabout… narrow two lane roads. Despite being narrow, the speed limit was usually 60km. My unsuredness had me going slower than most so I was constantly being passed. That’s fine… we made it safe and sound.
