Kauai

Since our trip to the Big Island was pretty much free (family member condo, and free airline tickets using our credit card points) we decided to go to Kauai and check it out since we have never been there before. We were only there for 3 days, but what we saw was beautiful! When we arrived we got our rental car and started exploring the island. We decided to go north and check out what the island had to offer. We saw a beautiful lighthouse and some really nice beaches. The island is so green, just driving around is nice! We went and had some lunch, checked into our hotel and hit the pool!

Our hotel was really nice! We had an oceanview room and the view was breathtaking! We hung out by the pool for a bit and then went to wal-mart and checked out a couple of really cool waterfalls. We went to dinner and then called it a night.

The nex day we drove south and went to Waimea Canyon. They call this the grand canyon of the pacific and it is really beautiful. We drove up the 19 mile road and stopped at all the lookouts to get some different views. We also got to see the biggest valley of the Na'pali coast. It's actually the only part of the coast that you can see by car. You can only see the whole thing by air or by boat.

We wanted to take a helicopter ride, but decided that it was too expensive...maybe next time!

We want to go back to Kauai so we can enjoy it all again. We did everything so fast that we didn't get to fully enjoy it all.
