Kauai Day 2 - Easter and Poipu Beach

Happy Easter! The Easter Bunny found us in Kauai. The kids woke up to find their Easter baskets waiting for them in the morning. The resort organized an Easter egg hunt for the kids. In the below picture, the Connor and Ryan are waiting for it to begin.The kids got a bag full of eggs that contained candy, stickers, erasers, or silly bands. The chocolate was very melted after sitting in the sun for just the short time it took the kids to collect it.
We managed to get a family picture after the Easter egg hunt.
In the afternoon we drove to Poipu Beach and stopped to do some shopping along the way. Only about half of the stores were open since it was Easter. Poipu Beach is a nice, calm beach so it is safer for the kids.
The beach is also shallow pretty far out. I went pretty far out, but was always able to tough the bottom.
It was nice and relaxing.
There were a couple seals that were sunbathing on the sand. This one is sleeping. We also saw a huge sea turtle that swam right along the people.
Can you tell from this picture that we told the kids it was time to go.... they were having too much fun to leave.
But, after we got back to the hotel and had dinner, it was back to the pool with the boogie boards to play with our neighbors. In the room next to us, there is a family that also has two boys around Connor and Ryan's age. They are even from San Luis Obispo and went to Cal Poly the same time we were there!
