Goodbye California!

On 9 June, the fatefull day, we said goodbye to the oneighty staff and left L.A. for the Woodfields, and from there, Oregon.

Kauai'i

The landscape of Kauai'i was the most beautiful continuous panorama of deep green trees and aqua-blue water I had ever seen. We tried to make the most of the sunshine (not that there isn't enough in L.A.) and warm water. A lady had asked the tour guide (on the boating trip) if she could please bottle some of the water so that she could show her friends the color!!!
