On the morning of our first full day in Kauai, we woke early. Light was just beginning to coming in thru the curtains. The fair and industrious Trudy got up and peeked out.
“Is the sun up?” I mumbled.
“Not yet,” she said.
There was a pinkish glow on the horizon.
I sat up quickly.
“Let’s go.”
We pulled on some clothes and went down to the beach. We walked past the leaning palm trees. We walked barefoot in the surf. And we watched sunrise on the Pacific.
