The weather was gorgeous on the day we were at Anini Channel. As you can see, the water is very shallow right here, as calm as can be. We were on the road walking, but it was so tempting to pull off the shoes and wade along the shore. Blue sky, warm water, and soft sand, what could be better? There's a park further down the road (to the left of this photo) where a few families … [Read more...] about Friday Fotos – Anini Channel Kauai looks good

Kauai’s Lydgate Park on a gray morning
On one of our morning walks, I caught this shot at Lydgate Park looking out to the ocean. The trades were blowing that morning, as you can see from a couple of the palms.
