November 2021

We spend the evening exploring the beaches around our new hotel and the extensive dining options

Another stop on the way to the new hotel is at Kilohana to visit the galleries and the shops and to buy some souvenir rum and chocolate

While moving from hotel to hotel we stop to visit the interesting Kauai museum to better understand the history of this region

We end the day at Paipu Beach enjoying the water and the wildlife including a turtle and a seal

After lunch we explore the Koloa Heritage Trail with sleepy towns and impressive blowholes

In the morning we explore Shipwreck Beach and the trails following the shore for some great views of turtles and the cliffs

Descending from Pihea Trailhead we stop at overlooks throughout Waimea State Park and outside it to enjoy the great views, flora and fauna

One of the highlights of Kauai is the Pihea trail we explore today while trying to avoid rain and mud and failing miserably

We end a day with a beach and bath visit to Salt Pond Beach and then a dinner at a nearby complex

We spend a couple hours in Hanapepe, the art capital of Kauai, buying souvenirs, exploring the downtown area and crossing hanging bridges
