Manoa Falls Hike
Collecting "howers" - When he sniffs them, he blows out through his nose. It's adorable!
A hurricane came through just after this picture - And we thought the first half of our hike was muddy... Only option was to keep going up!
150 ft falls - A spectacular site and definitely worth the wet hike. Just wish it wasn't raining so hard so we could've taken more photos!
Nu'Uanu Pali Lookout
Cold, rainy and windy the minute we got out of the car...
Lanikai Beach - East Coast
Ranked as world's top beach in 1996. Thanks to all the rain we brought with us, found it to be currently under water. Of course!
Drove a bit down the road to see if we could find another access point and it started pouring.
Back to Kailua!
Cole was asleep by the time we got out of the parking lot, so we drove up the coast. Gorgeous!
Wednesday
Dole Plantation and the North Shore
Perfect first stop - Fresh pineapple for Tom, a giant maze for me and a train ride for Cole!
Collecting our stamps at the hidden stations!
Took us an hour to find 7 stamps - Let's blame Cole's love of puddles and not my map-reading skills... It was tough for us to give up on that last stamp, but it was getting cold and Cole wouldn't stop screaming "TRAIN!" when he heard the whistles in the distance. He clearly wasn't going to understand our need to complete this task, so we made our way to the station!
Is it bad that before this visit I thought pineapples grew on trees?
Next stop - Turtle Bay Resort
Mid-afternoon snack at a shrimp truck - Giovanni's hot and spicy shrimp nearly killed all my taste buds but it was absolutely delicious!
