Day 142: Meanwhile, back on Kauai!!!

(It is hard to believe it has been just shy of two months since I took these photos!) This is our new friend, Pearl.  She’s in real estate on Kauai. One of our tour drivers had mentioned the Beach Hut, near the cruise ship dock in Lihue.  We decided we needed to find this marvelous […]

Day 137: Feet on Beach!

Bare feet on (foot in?) the Beach! A little more Hong Kong Sunrise in the sand… And in the water! Wave washed tootsies. Sinking out of sight… …and rinsed clean again. In the end… *** *** ~Curtis on Kauai! {!-{>

Day 136: More Beach!

Day 135: Back to Kauai!

We started our first full day on Kauai at a gathering of guests to offer activities for the week: snorkeling, sightseeing flights, dinner cruises, and so on. It was, as so many places are in Hawai’i, an open air pavilion. A Red Crested Cardinal. Of course, it being an open air pavilion, there are…chickens. Another […]

Day 129

After the great waves and sunset we had a quiet night, to awaken in Honolulu! And another view. Then it was off the boat under our own steam (and carrying our own luggage…quicker that way!) and off to the airport!  It was $9.95 for a whole day of internet at the airport…not the 40 cents […]

Day 128: The previously promised wave action…

As we left Lihue and headed for the Napali Coast, the bow waves from the NCL Pride of America were fascinating!  (All of the photos are wallpaper sized.) Here is a 100% sized crop of the wave above. The wind was blowing the top off of almost every wave. It moved an amazing amount of […]

Day 125: The Napali Coast…the other way?

After cruising the length of the Napali Coast, the NCL Pride of America turned around and sailed back the other way, past Lihue on the way to Oahu.  So the folks on the other side of the ship got to see the Napali Coast under the setting sun, and I took sunset photos.  It got […]

Day 123: The Napali Coast!

Our cruise liner sailed out of Lihue, northwest up the coast of Kauai, around and southwest along the Napai Coast past Princeville. The official Napali Coast is only 17 miles long.  It only took and hour or so to cruise by in the NCL Pride of America.  This is looking back towards Princeville and Lihue. […]

Day 122: Lihue to Princeville!

Here is another view of that lighthouse as we leave Lihue behind. The shoreline here is not sand…yet.  Wait a few thousand years! I have added a second view here, because it was hard to see that there was a tunnel in the rock. Our last view of the lighthouse. The shoreline is getting more […]
