Yesterday Jarrod and I spent a few hours at my favorite beach on Oahu, Bellows. The temperature was perfect, the sun was shining, the breeze was blowing, the waves were rolling. We've been to Bellows countless times in our two years here but I still can't get over the absolutely stunning blue color of the water.
If I'm going to be in two places at once, a beautiful Hawaiian beach and "la belle France" with Julia Child is the way to go!
And yet, even after an afternoon of relaxation at one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, I still felt a pang of longing when I looked through the pictures from my family's weekend getaway in the Colorado mountains. (Although I have to admit, in another month or two when they're bundled up against the snow, I'll probably be glad to live in a place where I can wear flip-flops all year round...)
I will trade a couple of fall days of being here in Colorado for a couple days in Hawaii. Both wonderful, beautiful places to be.
