On Thursday we ate breakfast at HiBlend Cafe before heading to the airport to take our short hop flight to Kauai. On Kauai we got an upgrade to a Nissan Altima. We first drove down the coast to visit Poipu beach. People were leaping off the cliff (after much hesitation). We decided we weren’t brave enough (it looks more dangerous and higher up in person!).
Then we visited sprouting horn.
Then we drove all the way to the other side of the island to Princeville Cliffs. Our room there was actually a condo (they sell the units when someone is interested), so it was quite nice. Our only complaint was that there was no AC (generally not a problem) and the hot water wasn’t so reliable.
After we checked in we headed down Hanalei Bay road for dinner at an L&L Hawaiian BBQ stand.
