Kauai (Part Two)

Back at Poipu Beach for the day.



Stopped at Shipwreck Beach,bigger waves-surfer beach.

Cierra in her Kauai outfit, going to dinner.

We hiked north of where we stayed and found a couple of nice beaches,this one was deserted. Wish we could have stayed all day! It was beautiful.

One day we went to the North Shore, stopped at Kilauea Point where they farm taro. End of the road. hiked along the Na Pali coast a bit on the Kalalau Trail and hung out at Kee Beach. Stopped in Hanalei for lunch, walked out the pier and then hiked down to Queen's Bath. Lots of turtles there.

Not the last day already. Took the boat ride out to the Fern Grotto, it was fun had a couple girls dancing and taught us the hula. Last stop Lyngate Beach. No worries we'll be back.

KAUAI-Part 1

Waiting to change planes to Kauai-fresh lei's.
Cierra was surprised, she wanted a convertible and we had told her
they were all out...she was happy.


We stayed at Sunset Kahili condos, they are older but clean and steps to the beach, nice view off our deck of the ocean we saw whales, sunsets and could hear the waves at night what more do you need ?
The beach we hung out at was Poipu Beach,great for kids, we snorkeled, I had sea turtles swimming around me and we saw a monk seal. The weather was perfect on the south shore!






Day two we took a morning walk down to Kipu Falls, you can jump off the cliffs or swing on the rope and climb back up the ladder. We drove through the east area by Lihue and Menehune Fish Ponds, up to Opaeka'a Falls, and then to Lyngate Beach Park-this was Cierra's favorite beach.

We went to Smith's Tropical luau that night, wandered through the gardens before dinner.

Day three out to Waimea Canyon, took a hike when we were coming down it started raining and by the time we were heading west out to Polihale Beach it was pouring! Decided not to try the dirt road out there guess we will have to plan another trip!!

Beautiful Winter Day

What a gorgeous winter day we had Sunday, finally the sun decided to make an appearance, and it shone bright! Took a little snowshoe trek it, was nice to get outside and not be freezing. A little teaser that spring really is coming.

Ava Jean 1st B-day

Ava had her 1st B-day Jan. 22, 2008 we had dinner,

opened presents and had cupcakes. By far her favorite

gift was a little red racetrack with two chickens that

would race around and around to the bottom. She

is such a cute, happy little thing! Good job Nes and

Matt!
