My cousin Sharon made her first trip to the Garden Isle recently. After months of planning and anticipation, the time to see this beautiful island arrived. I have to say she had the luck of the Irish going for her. She and her boyfriend Scott went hiking on the Na Pali Coast and here's what they saw. True, Kaua‘i does have perfect days like this one quite often. But, wow, this … [Read more...] about Friday Fotos — Na Pali Coast hike with a dream view

Friday Fotos — Na Pali Coast from the sky
My cousin Sharon recently took her first-ever trip to Hawai‘i. They were smart and took in all the big attractions which, in Kaua‘i's case are mostly natural.

If you continue past the pavement along the dirt, there are homes on the mauka (mountain) side of the road. When I saw this place, it reminded me of something straight out of a movie. I could just imagine an old curmudgeon … [Read more...] about Friday Fotos — quaint house along Anini Beach Road
