Our last full day (well, sort of…) in Hawai’i!
The Dailylife Wife took this photo of the Morning Rainbow on her walk .
I was looking for the Camera Club Secret Word of the Month: Yellow. This is the path that leads to our unit. Eventually.
And a little more wildlife!
We needed to wash a few things at some point on our vacation, and we found the Resort Laundry. The DLW asked at the desk if they had any small detergents for it, and the receptionist asked why we weren’t using the one in our unit.
The what? We had looked out on this useless little fenced “lanai” off the master bathroom, and sure enough, there was a washer and dryer! I didn’t get to take the photo until we were almost leaving. The other end held the hot water heater.
We went on down to Hanalei. It is very picturesque, and the local craft fair/farmers market (there are a lot of those around Kaua’i) is on the left end of the photo.
Then up to the Hanalei National Wildlife Refuge Overlook!
They are building or have built a new overlook. It has restrooms! This current one is just a wide spot in the road. The new one is not yet open, but it looks finished from what you can see from the highway. This is another view of the NWR itself.
In Hawai’i they make things easy on the local cops: the bad guys are required to identify themselves:
One of the neat things about driving in Hawai’i is that occasionally the road sweeps through the tree tops…
This link is for a short video of one of the bridges. It will open in a new window, but it is 11 MB, so it might take a little while to load. It only downloads in in Opera. I don’t know about any other browsers…
We went back to the Kilauea Point National Wildlife Refuge and Lighthouse!
And always, more chickens.
Across the road from our Resort is a really nice, and somewhat older (although not by much…it seems to be a mixture) housing area. We like it! We can’t afford it! We Dang It!
Those are Captain Cook Pines. He planted hundreds, if not thousands of them all around the Pacific on his voyage in the 1700’s. They are good for masts and spars: Ready on the vine spare parts!
This is our unit, the bottom floor on the left.
This was our last dinner at “home”. Thank heavens for Costco!
