Kauai 2006 Travel

HOME          MY LIFE        ALASKA       LATEST NEWS AND PHOTOS       TRAVEL

Kathy and I have been to Kauai, the Garden Island of the Hawaiian Islands chain, six or seven times now.  We really love the place and the fact that it is only about a six hour flight from Anchorage makes it as easy to get to from here as anywhere.

We stayed where we always stay on the north shore at Princeville and did all of the things we always do, most of the things we wanted to do, some things we hadn't done in a while, and some new stuff.  We relax on Kauai more than anywhere we go and that's the best reason for going there.

Here are a few photos of what we did and what it looked like when we did it.

We'll start this page with a great sunset shot by Kathy from in front of the condo in Princeville.

It's called Glass Beach because the old dump in the background washes into the ocean and glass gets ground up and deposited here.

An ancient and sacred hula site above Ke'e Beach on the norht shore of Kauai. Hawaiians still use it as a hula school and for dances.

It was't raining but we found this umbrella on Secret Beach and I felt like singin'.

Waimea Canyon was called the Grand Canyon of the Pacific by Mark Twain. It was cloudy, cold, and raining.

Kathy was learning how her new camera works. Wish I knew what all the flowers are but I don't.

There are some beautiful things in the ocean. Don't know what this fish is either.
