We were early birds today, taking off before 10 am for the Waimea Canyon. The first stop was to overlook the private owned island Nihau.

At around 1000 feet above sea level we made our second stop to watch some red dirt and a waterfall. At 1500 feet above sea level we stopped to have a look at the Waimea Canyon. It looked the same as when Chie and I were here a few years back. Guess mountains don’t change that quick – luckily since the view is beautiful 🙂

We continued upwards to arrive on top of Na Pali coast, where many Hollywood movies have been recorded. It is also one of the rainiest spots on earth. Though today the sun was shining 🙂

Once we had enjoyed the view we drove down the mountain and stopped at the Salt Pond for a late lunch and for cooling off in the ocean. Wonderful it was 😉

Later we were tired from all the impressions and playing in the water so we returned home to a wonderful sunset. And a great dinner, as usual.
