Kauai'i Day 3

This morning I woke up at 7:30 and went for a quick swim over on the beach in front of our hotel. There were actually quite a few fish in this man made cove. The fish were obviously conditioned to being fed, because they would just swim up to you and surround you. We took off pretty early to go to the Kukui Grove Shopping center. I got an acai cup from Jamba Juice…who’d have thought they’d have local tastes! The concert was really long…I think they played every song they know. But, it’s the last one we have to film! Hooray!

Our first sightseeing spot was a lookout over some cliffs, complete with lighthouse, called Kilauea Lookout. We were there for about an hour waiting for the band to show up. Unfortunately, it was rather overcast, so the photos aren’t too killer, but what can you do? My batteries in my digital camera claimed to be low, but they are still working even now! After the choir came, we let them view the site briefly before heading to Hanalei Bay.

Hanalei Bay (see top photo) sits in the middle of some lush green mountains. The north side of the island is much prettier than the south west sides. We just hung out for about an hour and a half. I was getting bored until someone pulled out an ukulele. I patiently waited my turn, and then let out a few jams! It was great fun! We ate at a place called Bubba’s Burgers. Big greasy burgers! I’m sure we’ll be eating later though. It was my first real meal today. I have been living off of “Cliff Bars”, an energy bar thing that Ryan and I bought.

On our way back to the hotel, we saw an incredible sunset! Lawrence did this crazy U-turn on a blind corner move so we could stop and see it, and it was WELL worth it! We didn’t actually see the sun, but the colors and the surroundings were incredible. It was probably one of the best sunsets I have seen. Now, its just time to go to bed early, I plan on getting up for the sunrise tomorrow!

Again, if you would like to see more photos, you can look on my facebook page.
