After making the drive from the west side of Kaua‘i to Koke‘e Park, it only makes sense to go to the end of the road. There could be almost white-out conditions, which can happen when the Kokee Park clouds roll in. Of course, even those conditions can be incredible.Not that long ago, the road could be a bit treacherous, but during our last trip, it had been repaired and was … [Read more...] about Friday Fotos — Kokee Park clouds roll in

Warm water, soft breezes, and sand crabs at Nukolii Beach
When you're down by the shore, you can walk amongst the rocks, get your feet wet, and watch for those funny little sand crabs at Nukolii Beach. Those little guys must have an endless job. They're always toiling away or digging in as the next wave approaches.
