Makena



This morning we packed a picnic lunch and headed out to meet our friends for a day in Makena. Although I've been at these beaches so many times to count (and every time was great), today was ideal! The weather was perfect, visibility clear and the company was exceptional. The kids hadn't seen each other since school got out, and were over the moon to see friends from home. They built a sand house, played in the surf and searched for coral.


Parents got to catch up and visit with our toes in the sand, which felt like silk today. "What is it about Hawaii," she said, "that makes it so easy to completely relax?" My response as if it were a reflex, "the smell in the air, the vitamin D from the sun, the feel of the sand and the relaxing warm water." Doing absolutely nothing has its rewards. Reducing stress plan is working. Great day!
