Hawaii!

So how many of you have been to Hawaii? It is absolutely gorgeous! I wanted to have my pictures on my computer by now, but unfortunately, I don't have them yet. Leave it to my brother to forget the digital camera [practically the only thing he was responsible for bringing]. Therefore, we had to get a disposable camera with just 27 exposures, which automatically meant that my family insisted on keeping it far from my reach throughout the trip simply because they knew if it landed up in my hands, we'd go through a camera or two per day, and my parents, being the cheap South Indians that they are, weren't about to go past camera #1.

In any event, let me just say, I've seen stunning pictures of Hawaii. I've seen the turquoise water, I've seen the tall cliffs and the crashing waves, I've seen the surfers, I've seen the volcanoes. I always felt that most of the pictures taken of any location and placed in travel brochures and websites had been touched up to give a more glamorous, desirable appeal. My trip to Hawaii was one of the few trips I have taken where I felt that not even those pictures did justice to the beauty of the place. I was awestruck to see the water really was that colour and the palm trees and the volcanoes and everything else that came with Hawaii was in reality far more splendid than any photo could ever capture.

A more detailed entry with pictures and descriptions to come soon!
