Back to it! More Kauai!

I had to rest a lot the day after the stones passed.

Tree Tunnel
2 days after the stone passed, on the way to Poipu

Sandbar
This beach was awesome. If you notice, it was 2 beaches, separated by a sandbar. So one side would splash up against the other, and the water would get ya!

Fuzzy!

Rocks
At the end of the sandbar, there were these rocks that had TONS of little tiny fish swimming in them. It was so neat!

We decided to try snorkeling, so we went to the car. When we got back to the beach, there was a visitor!!
Hawaiian Monk Seal
Sleepy Hawaiian Monk Seal!

Precious sleeper!

Hawaiian Monk Seal
LOOK AT THAT FACE! I couldn't stop staring it at! It would roll over, scratch his/her belly and snooze away.

Fuzzy holds up a Hawaiian Monk Seal
Fuzzy got to hold it! (Just kidding. That would be illegal.) Incidently, snorkeling was not successful for me that day. I did better the next day.

Overlook
I'm telling you--the most gorgeous place I've ever been.

Chickens
CHICKENS! Kauai is known for its red dirt. It is so intense that they use it to dye tshirts.

Chilling Cat
I saw this kitty just hanging out and I made Fuzzy stop the car so I could take a photo of him.

Waimea Canyon
Waimea Canyon. Here is where my brain started not being able to process all the beauty. It couldn't comprehend it anymore.

Trying to take it all in.

The Moon over Waimea Canyon

We were at the canyon with only one other person. Guess where he was from--yep! Leave it to us to find the one other person from Mississippi on Kauai. He was nice, though, and took our photo!
