the neverending vacation slideshow continues...

Strangely enough, one of the things we enjoyed most during our trip was visiting a local macadamia nut factory. Who knew? After grazing their free sample area like it was a country buffet, we left with fifty bucks worth of flavored nuts. Fifty dollars. I didn't know we were such mac nut junkies. Oh and the blue car in the picture? A 2008 Dodge Avenger. Not recommended. My lawn mower has more horsepower.

Ok, here's where I'm gonna just give you the reader's digest version of the rest of the trip. My reasoning for this is a) there are literally about 400 more pictures in addition to the ones I've posted and this is seriously becoming a chore and b) most people don't give a rip about looking at other people's vacation pictures. Unless you're my mother and I promise I'll bring my laptop home with me in July. So here goes. i...

saw lots of waterfalls,

hiked until I wanted to die,

ate lots of sub-par food at the resort,

illegally cooked some fish on the beach,

saw some ancient ruins and rock carvings, and

shut my head in the car door (literally).

Well that just saved me about three hours. Oh, and for all those out there who were sorely disappointed that I did not post the gross video of the fish, I posted it on YouTube for your viewing pleasure. Just do a search under "amandathejeweler" and it will take you to both fishing videos.
