Snapshots

I might have declared this week my unofficial spring break, and spent hours in a swimsuit everyday. There is a distinct possibility it might also have been worth it, now that I'm jumping into the last three weeks of the semester and start exams and presentations Monday. 

On Tuesday, I went and did the Laie Falls hike with a couple of friends and took some pictures along the way. 

If I could identify any of these for you, I would, but my Hawaiian flora knowledge is sadly lacking. The third one might be a close up of a Cook Pine tree. Maybe?

  1. I took my Spring Break last week also. And this week is the official one, so I'll have a week to work without meetings!
    I have taken a few pictures of my own recently, and I think of you when I do my close-ups. Nature provides such interesting textures!
    What kind of plant was the flower on? It almost looks like a guava blossom, but not quite.
    With all those classes you took, didn't you grab a Hawaiian botany course? Maybe you should fit one in?
    Talk soon! Love always!

  2. I couldn't tell you what kind of plant... I was mostly just paying attention to the flowers. :) And there is nooooo chance I'm subjecting myself to an unnecessary science class. I'll find a book.

  3. The top Flower is a LIlikoi flower (passion fruit flower)
