Kauai Marriott Beach Resort

For the second half of our vacation we stayed at the Kauai Marriott Beach Resort for five days. This is the view from our lanai. They have the biggest single-level pool in all of Hawaii and we sure spent a lot of time in it.


Codey and Chris went ocean kayaking (or Clay Aiken, as they called it) twice. They were dumped out of the kayak once while trying to ride the waves. Here they are returning to the beach.

They were into trying ALL of the water activities they could. Here they are trying stand-up paddle board surfing.

And here they are body boarding.


One day we took a trip on a catamaran, here's Chris and Codey riding the trampoline of the catamaran and looking for fish in the ocean.

At the hotel pool, there was a bridge out to an island. One time, Chris tried to push Codey in but he didn't quite succeed.


Codey tried returning the favor but he didn't succeed either. Neither one ended up in the water. Isn't it crazy that Codey is getting almost as tall as Chris?



And still more teasing. Chris trying to dump Codey from one of the hammocks on the hotel grounds.



This is on the drive to the end of the road on the north shore of Kauai. There are quite a few one-lane bridges. I thought it was cool that there was a sign that tells drivers that the local custom is for 5 - 7 cars from each side to cross the bridge before you stop and let some cars from the other side go. Chris HATES these winding Hawaiian roads with one-lane bridges, just ask him about the road to Hana someday.


Sadly, Codey had to do homework while in paradise.

Looks so fun. I love the paddle surfing on EAS Wii. I wanna try it for real.
