Woke up quite late to a blue sky. After preparing the picnic for the day we went to Kiahuna Beach. The waves were quite big but it was fun. We stayed at Kiahuna all day long, reading, playing in the waves, and just enjoying the sun.

Around 5 pm it was time to return home, but first we stopped in Koloa Old Town to buy some groceries. We also bought an ice cream that we shared – Tutu’s Anniversary with passion fruit, raspberry, and coco nut. Yummy!

On our way home we met Sting. Well, he was driving a red Jeep in the opposite direction to where we were going. So we will probably spend tomorrow driving around in this area looking for a red Jeep. And when we find it we will probably hide in the bushes… Or maybe not.

For dinner we had Gaspachio, marinaded yellow paprika and grilled salmon with Italian herbs and grilled tomato and onion.

After having breakfast we drove to the north part of the island. We wanted to go to the SeaLodge beach. A secluded beach located inside the Princeville residence.

It took as an hour to drive to Princeville but most of all it was difficult to find the access point to the beach. When we finally found it it had no space for parking. Maybe we could have parked just along the road in front of a house. But you know these stinky rich people… They are never to be trusted. If we had left the car there it would probably have been a skeleton when we came back. Better then to go to the Hideways beach not far from SeaLodge.

Hideways is easier to find and has more parking space. There is a public parking which we could use this time (the other times we have just used the hotels parking lot). After 10 minutes walk down a quite steep trail we were at one of the nicest beaches in Kauai. Today it was quite a lot of people but still OK.

The sky was clouded but occasionally the sun peeked through. Still it was a nice temperature for laying on the beach and doing nothing more than relaxing and reading. We also tried snorkeling but there was not so much fish today.
By 4:30 pm we walked back to the car. And drove to Foodland to buy some groceries.

Back home we started to cook dinner. Today’s dinner was salmon cream sauce pasta and Greek salad. Yummy!

Early morning again. This time to catch a flight to Kauai. We arrived at the airport a little early so we could catch an early flight. 9 am instead of 10 am. So we arrived in Kauai by 9:30.

At the rental car company our mid-sized car was not ready so we got a full-sized car for the same price. We could not complain about that.

We drove 20 or so minutes to get to Poipu plantation, but our room was not ready for checkin yet. So we hanged to swim clothes and went to Poipu beach. The waves where quite big since it is summer time and this was the south shore.

We relaxed in the sun, reading books, watching people surf, drinking water, and eating fruits and chips. And occasionally we cooled off in the water.

By 3 pm we returned to our room. Unpacked and took a shower. And went to the grocery store to spend $120 on groceries for the dinner, and the rest of our stay.
