 We returned to Kauai, the "home port" of our Marriott Vacation Club, for the first time in six years. It was nice to see "our" place again, on the south-east tip of the island.

We were joined by our friend, Sue. She has been a friend in spirit for five years, but this was the first time we have met in the flesh. Sue was as expected - fun, thoughtful, and short.

The week couldn't have been more enjoyable. Did only one "touristy" thing (thankfully, because while I enjoy doing a tourist, I abhor doing touristy stuff). We took a charter boat from Port Arthur to the Na'Pali coast and did some snorkeling.

Other than that, we explored the dirt roads of the island in search of beaches and trails off the beaten path - thanks to a trusty Subaru AWD. Barb and Sue were good sports for tolerating my blasting down pothole-filled roads, to who knows where and most often in search of who knows what. It was disconcerting at first when Barb and Sue talked about offing me and striking out on their own, but after a while I didn't put too much stock in how serious they were about their plan.

Rather than bore you with details, I have set up a gallery for you to browse through. A couple photos are pretty good, while most are of the "memories" variety. So with school back in session it seems only proper to ask...... what did you do this summer?
