Home from Kauai!

I'm back from 8 wonderful days in Kauai. We had a blast hiking to waterfalls, swimming with sea turtles, getting 60+ mosquito bites in 3 days, jumping off rope swings in to fresh water pools, hanging out with my cousins, aunts and uncles, camping in the backyard of a mansion, camping on the beach, watching sunrises, eating delicious food, drinking yummy drinks and getting sunburnt :)
Here are some pictures for you

300ft waterfall. it was amazing to float on your back and look up at the waterfall. it was unreal.


I also did a ton of drawings that i'll be posting in a day or two.
