makapu'u

Maka what? Yea, I know. I thought that too. The lingo here takes some getting used to but it's pretty easy to catch on to after a while. Anyway, there's an area beside the Makapu'u Lighthouse Trail (I'm not sure what it it's called... and I probably should have researched that before writing this!) that we visit often. It's one of our favorite spots on the island. 
To get there, you have to walk about a mile through a field with views of mountains to your left and right and the ocean ahead of you. Once you reach the water you can head to the left where there's a little cove with sand that's perfect for laying out and swimming. There's rarely anyone there which makes it a perfect place to take Duke. He loves it there. He's a beach lover and this one is definitely his favorite. It's like having a private beach all to ourselves. 
If you head to the right, there's a rocky area that's so beautiful. It's really a surreal place to be. 
Here are some pictures from our most recent visit!

When I start feeling homesick (that will happen a lot more during the holidays) will you remind me of how lucky I am to live here? What are some of your favorite places in the world?

  1. I was born in Hawaii, moved and then was lucky enough to spend my middle school years there. I miss it a lot.

  4. Just stumbled upon your blog and ironically, Im from Hawaii! Ill be moving to San Diego soon though.. so Ill really miss it =( The spot I think you were at is either 'Pele's Chair' or 'Allan Davis'. 'Pele's Chair' has a big log sticking out of the rocks that people jump off of into the ocean. Super fun! Only the locals know about it ;) If you like hiking, there are some great places I could recommend! Beautiful views! Hawaii will always be my favorite place =)

  12. Wow! Gorgeous blog you've got here! Thanks for stopping by mine & subscribing. :)

    My opinion on swearing is that when you're in front of kids, it's a no-no (though I do slip up occasionally haha), but sometimes there's no other way to describe a feeling or a situation, other than to say SHIT or Fuuuuuuuuuck,or even SHITFUUUUCK lol..

    I find people who are seriously uncomfortable with swearing strange. I mean, they're just words, right? And to me, they're really fantastic verbs/adjectives. :P

    But I wouldn't hold it against someone. To each their own. Respect me, and I'll respect you. :)
