The term forms from the German words wandern (to hike) and lust (enjoy). Placing the two words together translates to "to enjoy hiking", although it is commonly described as an enjoyment of strolling or wandering. A more contemporary equivalent for the English wanderlust in the sense of "love of travel" would be Fernweh (literally "an ache for the distance").

Polihale State Beach Park
We spent the weekend at the beach. The weather was fantastic, we had a great time. We are definitely a family that loves the water. When we finally decided to go home and take a shower we asked Kalia what her favorite part of the weekend was. Surprisingly, she had an entire list, so here we go...
swimming,
playing with our friends Rosie, Evie and Vida, Chaser and Saylor,
riding the waves in the baby ocean (reef protected) all by herself,
the roasting of marshmallows,
sleeping on the sand,
eating daddy's yummy cooking,
playing sand toys with brother,
collecting shells,
throwing the ball for Ishmael,
and watching the sunset.
We thought a lot about our Polihale camp crew, we realized it will never be the same for us on that beach without the four of them. We wish them well in NYC and well... on the radical sabbatical.
If we one day find ourselves homeless, we decided this might be the perfect place to squat!
