Here is Julie getting ready for some skin diving at Poipu beach. Very
pretty fish, and very easy to see. |
|
|
|
|
|
Shhhhhh....Bill is lining up a quadruple bogey putt at Poipu Bay Golf Club |
|
|
|
|
|
Bill and Julie show off the view from Poipu Bay. |
|
|
|
|
|
Julie looking as beautiful as the day I married her. |

|
Bill and Julie before the luau at Smith's Tropical Paradise. If you
go, go early so you can see the gardens. |
|
|
|
|
|
At
the luau, here is the crew removing the pig from the hole where it was
steamed. |
|
|
|
|
|
We
took a movie tour, where we got to see spots on Kauai where they filed
famous movies. Here is Julie on the swing from the beginning of
Raiders of the Lost Ark. |
|
|
|
|
|
Once Julie had proven the swing was safe and sturdy, Bill was ready to go.
Note the authentic Indiana Jones hat for maximum effect. |
|
|
|
|
|
While we were on a ranch looking at movie sites, we stopped to feed some
"wild" pigs. |
|
|
|
|
|
Our
tour also tool us to the Coco Palms resort. Now shuttered, the Coco
Palms used to be the place to stay as well as the filming site of a number
of movies, including Evlis's Blue Hawaii. |
|
|
|
|
|
Also on the tour was Opaekaa Falls, which was made famous as the waterfall
from the beginning of Fantasy Island. |
|
|
|
|
|
Julie is shocked and appalled that they would have such a tree on a
supposedly "family oriented" island. |
|
|
|
|
|
Here we are at Waimea Canyon, the Grand Canyon of Hawaii, |
|
|
|
|
|
We
took a day hike along the Napali (northern) coast to see some waterfalls.
Here is Bill ignoring the trail warnings (we are from Colorado after all; we
can take anything Hawaii can dish out!) |
|
|
|
|
|
Bill and Julie take a break along the trail. There were guava trees
all along the way offering hikers a juicy snack. |
|
|
|
|
|
I'm
sure the waterfalls are just around the next bend.... |
|
|
|
|
|
At
a beach along the trail, Julie befriended some wild kitty cats. |
|
|
|
|
|
Finally! We pose in front of Hanakapiai Falls. |
|
|
|
|
|
More golf? You bet. here is Julie at Princeville Golf Course |
