For some reason I just can’t get the thought of the Islands out of my head lately. It’s odd really, since I’ve never visited them before. I just really want to sit on a white sand beach somewhere with the aroma of a pig cooking in the ground mingling with salt air, pineapple and a good Mai Tai. It won’t go away, no matter what I do.

So at various times of the day I find myself browsing websites on Hawaii Vacation Info. There are Kauai condos available and I wonder what it would be like to wake to ocean breezes and the smells of tropical rain. I stare at the pictures of the water and the sand, but invariably I return to the food, digging through recipes and wondering how I could interpret them with local ingredients.

I won’t be making a trip to Kauai anytime soon, but you can be sure that until whatever reason that has me wanting to venture there, I’ll be looking over the Kauai Travel Blog on a regular basis and wondering if it’s the food or the scenery that’s calling to me. It might also just be the call of the beach. I was a sailor after all, and I’m one that’s been too far from the sea for far too long.
