Mudbugs

While in Hawaii, we each picked an activity. Todd picked an atv ride and I picked a tube ride through the irrigation canals on one of the old sugar cane plantations. As the tube ride was in the dark (duh it was in a tunnel) there are no pictures to share, BUT we have lots from our atv ride. We have 4-wheelers here at home so we opted to ride in a 2-person vehicle they call a mudbug. It has no fenders which leads to some serious mud to the occupants of the vehicle. It was a total blast! We had to wear rented clothes as not to ruin our own with the ever-staining red mud that makes up Kauai. We also got to swim in a waterfall when we stopped for lunch. The water was COLD, but it was quite an experience. I'm ready to go back anytime...

This is not us, but we looked like this most of the time.



Hand-dug tunnel used to transport sugar cane back in the day.

Hi!

Are we there yet?

What happens on the island, stays on the island...

In the beginning of October, Todd and I took a much needed trip to Kauai. It was wonderful! It was warm and beautiful and we got some alone time which is always a bonus :) Here are some pictures of our week there.
