We had booked to go tubing today and Lyn and Mark were going zip-lining. Both of these activities ran from the same spot which we had to drive to. Would have been difficult without a car! We boarded a rather shabby 4 WD vehicle and headed of on some bumpy roads to the start of the course. A couple of lovely lookouts on the way and the guides were young blokes and full of life. There was about 15 of us in the group and we all had to wear special gloves, shoes and ...

Had another great day today! After breakfast took off with a 'Best of Kauai Tour' in a mini bus with Domi. It was great and we learned a lot about the history and language of Hawaii. Domi would tell us stuff then make us all recite it back to him. Rather unusual but cleverly done and we seemed to retain quite a bit. (Not sure if we'll still remember it all tomorrow however!) Went on a river cruise to a small cave and had Hawaian Hula dancers and musicians play...

Got up early (like 5.30AM) as we had to get down to the wharf for a boat trip with Captain Andy's! After dodging all the morning peak traffic we got to the wharf on time. The boat was a beautiful big catamaran with a trapeze at the front. The trip sailed from Port Allan in the south of Kauai and out along the Na Pali coast which is beautiful. Large sea cliffs and dolphins along the way! Breakfast and lunch were provided and the crew were fantastic. We had a sn...

Lisa took off for a walk before breakfast which she enjoyed. We had booked to go on a helicopter flight this afternoon which I was a bit nervous about as I'd never been in a helicopter before! We decided to visit the Waimea canyon in the morning. This was a lovely drive along the cliff tops of the amazing canyon which was described by Mark Twain as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific! Lots of lovely waterfalls and the weather was great. Fine and sunny! Stopped at a...

Day began with the obligatory Time Share Meet and Greet. (No Time Share hard sell luckily) Various tour company's showing their products. We made lists, had a healthy donut and coffee (percollated) to kick start the day and listened to some singing and Hula dancing. Discussed options and handed our list in at the activities desk before heading north to the lighthouse for a look. Then had a swim at a nearby beach. Lovely and calm and the water was so warm! Then...
