Kauai 2009
Posted on May 17th, 2009 3 commentsAfter three nights on Maui, it was time for three more on Kauai. Flying between the islands isn’t as easy as it used to be. I seem to recall that you could once fly nonstop — now you have to change planes in Honolulu.
Here are all of my photos from the Garden Isle of Kauai!
-
- Friday night sunset
-
- The Grand Hyatt Kauai is a destination in and of itself (though it’s way overpriced, IMHO)
-
- Beautiful grounds. I believe Hyatt spent a billion dollars to build the hotel in 1990
-
- On a beach usually not suited for swimming
-
- They do have numerous pools and a saltwater lagoon for swimming, though
-
- Tons of tropical plants, as you’d expect
-
- Don’t know how he got here
-
- Snorkel spot of the day: Beach House
-
- All the usual suspects
-
- School’s out
-
- This fish seems happy
-
- Tons of fish
-
- Lots of human-made junk on the ocean floor around here
-
- Not sure what this is
-
- Raccoon butterfly fish
-
- Unicorn fish, I think
-
- One of two famous shrimp “restaurants” on this side of the island
-
- These guys are EVERYWHERE
-
- And they keep reproducing
-
- Spouting Horn
-
- Opeakea Falls
-
- Wailua River
-
- Looking the other way
-
- Hanalei Valley overlook panorama
-
- Valley floor panorama
-
- Translation: stay out of the water
-
- Lumahai Beach panorama
-
- Wild animal tracks
-
- Hanalei church
-
- Kilauea lighthouse (I took a better photo last time)
-
- A type of cardinal, I’m told
-
- No, he’s not setting the palm tree on fire
-
- A resident of the Grand Hyatt
-
- Hibiscus
-
- Picked a bad day to go to Waimea Canyon
-
- View of the canyon on the drive down
