Hawaiian Vacation (aka The Longest Post Ever)

I’m about to try something new. Rather than beginning a series of posts that continue for half a year and drag on until I can’t remember what/why I’m posting, I’m going to do one massive post. For spring break I traveled to Hawaii to visit my little sister. There are three things you should know about me:

1- I hate sand.

2- I hate sun.

3- I hate sand combined with sun.

You can imagine why I wasn’t terribly excited to take this trip. I hate to admit this, but my every reservation evaporated and I fell in love with the place.

The following is a large collection of images without description that I would like to share with whoever wants to see. Some of the photos may have been taken by my little sister (Who will soon have a growing collection of photos here). To help enhance the experience, I recommend hitting play on the soundcloud widget below as this tune served as the trip’s soundtrack.

After that I suggest you spend the next 3 minutes and 28 seconds scrolling through the long, LONG line of photos.

Hawaiian Vacation The End

Taking into consideration the sand and the sun, it was still a really awesome trip.

Please excuse me now while I tearfully search for an Acai Bowl…

  1. YES! I LOVE THIS! So happy you came out here!

    1. The pleasure was all mine Kate! You’re a lucky girl to have spent so much time out there!

  2. Absolutely stunning landscapes, great photos! You really captured some epic scenes.

    1. Thanks Adam! For every one epic landscape there are a dozen not so epic, but very sentimental. In fact I think the landscapes that really stand out were so impressive in real life that it would have been difficult to take a poor photo of them!

  3. Architectural!
