More Flower from Hawaii

Sharing a few more of the many flowers and blooming bushing in and around the condo where we stayed.

One of the buildings in the condo complex we stayed in.

More of the grounds.

The hedges

Ginger Plant

Birds of Paradise

Plumeria

Hibiscus in Hawaii

The hibiscus came in single blooms and nice ruffled double blooms.  The colours were amazing too, from white to bright pink to the pastel mauve on we saw.

Here are just a few of the many hibiscus we saw.

Ah, Hawaii

What can I say, Hawaii was beautiful and we enjoyed every minute of it!!!

I cannot believe another month has passed though without me posting.  I had saved several posts in the drafts to post while we were away in Hawaii, but Blogger did some updating and unfortunately those drafts were lost by the time I tried to post them.  Without access to any of my pictures while we were away it made creating a new post difficult.  I will have to post those drafts as some point, but for now I thought I would start to share some of my many pictures from our wonderful vacation in Maui.

Aloha from Maui

 A close up of one of the palm trees.

The Traveler Palm.  They reminded me of huge fans, and they by far have to be my favourite kind of palm tree.  So fun to photograph too!

Finally, one of the condo where were stayed.  The grounds were beautiful and I loved waking up with the fragrance of flowers in the air.

Portland Canal

Here are a few pictures from our brief opportunity to get out boating on the canal.  Hopefully we will be able to spend some more time out boating and exploring this summer.

 

It is a little hard to see, but there is a waterfall in there.

An avalanche chute.

Ah spring when the waterfalls start, but the snow is still there.

The seals like to sun themselves on the logs in the canal that are waiting to be loaded onto ships. The logs that is, not the seals.

Hyder Tide Flats

Just sharing a few more pictures from the tide flats in Hyder.
