Aloha! Well we started the day at Anini beach with a brief snorkel. Mom wasn't up for getting wet but Papa did great! He got ready and got into the water like a pro and even spotted a small moray eel not to far into the snorkel. After our swim we sat on the beach and talked story for a bit. Mom said she wanted to see the coffee plantation again as our last visit was a short one so we headed back to the house to wash the saltwater off before heading out. We stopped in Kapaa for a bit of lunch and also made a side trip to see Wailua Falls on the way. It was really rolling today because of the rain we have been having. From there our next stop was the coffee plantation and Mom got the full tour this time. We watched the video they show about the coffee, examined everything in the gift shop at least twice, worked our way around the 1/8 mile of the worlds largest coffee maze and even found the time to enjoy a dish of ice cream to boot! From here we drove to the Red Dirt Shirt factory to shop for a few more souvenirs. Next we headed back to Kalaheo and the Kukuiolono Golf Course...the only one you can play in Hawaii for 11 bucks! We have never played the course as we are not golfers but the views of the ocean from the parking lot are great! From here we headed to Koloa then to Poipu. It was after 4 when we left Poipu so we decided to stop at Costco to get a couple of pizzas to bake for supper as no one wanted to cook! We are planning a beach day tomorrow...probably on the south shore.
Jackie and I retired in October of 2006. Jackie after 15 years as a veterinary technician for Prosser Animal Hospital, Carl after 30 years as a leadman for Kenyon Zero Storage. Our last day on the job was on a Friday and we were on the plane heading to Kauai Saturday.
