Hawaii Vacation

So if you're ever in Kauai I've listed some fun places to visit and eat...

1. Waimea Canyon - the drive is slightly curvy but from the turn-off its approximately a 20 minute drive to the viewpoint. It's worth the drive up.

2. Grinds Cafe & Espresso - the breakfast is delish. Beware: do not use the bathroom after anyone who's been in there for more than 5 minutes. There's also a local cat who likes to eat whatever you might offer.

3. Hyatt on Kauai - its gorgeous!!

4. Marriott Vacation Club in Kauai - the sushi bar is fantastic and the pool area is gorgeous. Try Duke's as well.

5. Line zipping - there are a few different places you can get your zip on but either way its worth the money. Locals can zip for 60 pp.

Though Kauai is the oldest of the Hawaiian island chain - its still the most primitive. The scenery is really natural and untouched; however, I've never seen so many wild cats and chickens. It rains a bit there but the temperature is really moderate so I didn't mind it at all. They're also known for their incredibly red dirt - its everywhere.

I personally loved being there - giving it a 9 for relaxation and setting. It loses a point for the 22 mosquito bites I received while there. :(
