Tuesday we took the drive to the North Shore, doing a portion of the Kalalua Trail before lunch and swimming in Hanalei Bay afterwards. What a beautiful part of the island!

David loves coming around the curve in the road here onto the bridge over a stream and seeing all the gorgeous tress poking up. |
|
Getting ready for our hike! The newborn set up shop with his mom on the beach and waited for the rest of us. Smart decision. |
|
From the viewpoint at the 1/4 mile distance. |
|
After another 1/4 mile we came to the next stopping place. I was disappointed that the view of the Napali Coast wasn't more clear. And it was windy and crowded, but I'm still glad we went. |
|
On the return hike - still gorgeous views! |
|
When the water's so close, you just have to walk along the shoreline for a bit! |
|
Wayne went quite a bit further than Evelyn, and even saw a sleeping monk seal. |
|
We went far enough to catch another view of the Napali Coast, this time from sea level. It's pretty majestic. |
|
Tired two-year-old! |
|
Next stop - Hanalei Bay - |
|
where we enjoyed a yummy picnic lunch, some exploring, |
|
some swimming, |
|
and some more swimming and relaxing! |
|
Wayne was looking for a fresh coconut all week long. He finally found one. However, it wasn't ripe enough and was way too slimy to actually eat. So once we were home, I got one at the grocery store. One of the days we'll crack it open and see if it's any better! |
|
Last "adventure" for the day - driving through the tunnel of trees a few miles from their home. It was a great day. |
