Kauai Day 14 – Up the River to Secret Falls
Today has a busy last day agenda with a goal of getting back to the VRBO in time to get packed. First stop, drop the snorkel fins off Fathom Five. Check. Second, power up with up Acai bowls for breakfast – yum. Next, pick up kayaks by 9am in Kappa, including strapping them to the […]
Kauai Day 13 – North Surfing and Beach Day
Up and by 5am, we head to Poipu beach to see the turtles on the beach before the sun comes up and they head back into the water. We can see where several turtles have camped out the night before, but were up bright and early. Two slumbering and a little less eager to wake […]
Kauai Day 12 – Waimea Swamp Hike
What is there to say? Today we hiked, we looked, and we ate. Jenney up at her usual time (early) BBQed tofu and purple sweet potatoes, boiled salt potatoes, and mustered up breakfast (hash browns, eggs, pineapple, and toast). Jenney and Kevin ate a peaceful breakfast. The girls were served a peace offering in bed […]
Kauai Day 11 – Surfing
Today was Logan’s one thing – surf lessons. We took it slow getting going to arrive at the shop at just before 10am. A quick video, 2 minute practice on the stance to get up, and down to the beach. We bobbed around a lot before we got going, but all had at least one […]
Kauai Day 10 – Sleeping Giant Hike
Jenney and Kevin were up early to wish Jen and Jacob well. Jacob climbed tree to get 2 fresh coconuts (way more agile than Kevin’s concussion style moment) and some mangos. We provided left over pie and Red Velvet Cake for the less healthy breakfast option, and wished them well as they continued their honey […]
Kauai Day 9 – Na Pali Adventure Boat Tour
Another early start. The itinerary was a boat ride down the Na Pali Coast from the north, then snorkeling at Anini Beach to see the “turtle cleaning station”. We broke down camp before 6am to head into Hanalei when the road opens (remember the traffic issue). We were a bit more than punctual arriving half […]
Kauai Day 8 – Hanakapiai Falls
We were lucky enough to get day passes at Ha’ena State Park. This feat required getting up several days in a row at 6am EST (midnight Hawaii time) to submit the online request. Passes go in a matter of minutes. We were never able to get backpacking permits, but felt really fortunate to get into […]
