Early rise to catch the 9:50 am flight to Kauai. The shuttle bus picked us up at the hotel at 7:15 am. But at least that made us up early enough to watch the sunrise.
The flight to Kauai takes just about 30 minutes. And from the airport it is a short bus ride to the rental car location. Where we picked up a full size car instead of an economy as we reserved. They were out of economy size. The full size was not as noisy as the economy but the economy is more convenient for two people, and for the environment.
Anyway, bot types of cars can take us to Poipu from the airport. It’s a 25 minutes ride. When arriving at Poipu Plantation Resort we were welcomed as if we were part of the family. It’s at least our third time here. Our room was already available so we did some unpacking before going to our favorite beach, Kiahuna. Although we only spent the afternoon there and most of it sleeping or reading we still had time to play in the waves.
After the beach we were really exhausted. It is hard work sleeping and reading in the sun. We still had to go to Big Save in Koloa to buy dinner and breakfast. And we had to make dinner at home as well. Pasta Putanesca and salad.
