The Garden Island

2 weeks ago, my parents were on vacation on Oahu, and we took a family trip to Kauai for a few days. It was their first time there, and we had some great times and laughs! (food as well).

Equipped with my phone as my camera, we were able to snap some beautiful places around the island.

On the first day, we visited the West side down to Kalalau Lookout and drove our way back to Lihue.

Afternoon Coffee...

Food breaks...

The next day, we went all the way to Hanalei side and enjoyed the multiple views along the shores.

Aloha!

Billabong Pipe Masters 2013

After viewing the news last night, I decided to set the alarm to wake up early and head to Pipeline North Shore! I wish I could stay longer until the finals, but I was able to snap some shots for today's event.

It was hard to find parking and parked at the closest closest lot for a $10 flat rate. It was really crowded and found a spot on the beach. This was my first time and the waves were au rendez vous!

As Winter approaches, waves are coming in huge series! I was at Ke Iki Beach to assist Brandon for a photoshoot. I was able to get some shots in between breaks.
