Waipoo Falls

Waimea Canyon, Kauai, Hawaii

Waipoo Waterfall was just as majestic as ever!  Flowing thru a canyon that is referred to as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific, Waipoo Falls thrills all who see it!

Waimea Canyon

Waimea, Kauai, Hawaii

I was so surprised when I found out that one of my cousin’s was on Oahu, (she lives in New Zealand so I don’t get to see her very often) and even more surprised when she and her husband came to Kauai for a day.  We took them everywhere we could in a day.  At the top of Waimea Canyon you never know what the view will be like.  Most of the time we just look out at clouds.  This day, for them, the clouds were minimal and allowed us to look down at the ocean and see the beautiful Nã Pali Coast from above.  It was awesome!

Rainy Nã Pali Coast

Haena Beach, Kauai, Hawaii

It was drizzly as we got out to Haena Beach which is on the north shore of Kauai.  As you walk out on the beach and look back you can see the Nã Pali Coast, it is pretty even with rain!

Waterfalls

Hanalei, Kauai, Hawaii

Each time we drive to Haena we drive thru the beautiful town of Hanalei. There is a lovely beach there and breath taking mountains with gorgeous waterfalls, particularly after rain. This day there were many waterfalls, because of all the rain we have had. Someone said, ‘it looks like the waterfall is coming out of the sky’. There are three waterfalls in this photo, can you see them?

Wai’oli Hui’ia Church

Hanalei, Kauai, Hawaii

Each time we drive to Haena we drive thru the quaint town of Hanalei. There we see waterfalls on the mountains and gorgeous beaches.  There is a beautiful church there that we pass each time and I have for years wanted to stop and take a photo of it.  But, it seems we are always rushing to get back to PiuPu before it gets too dark. This day was the same, so I took this photo from the car.  Waiʻoli Huiʻia Church was built in 1912 by the descendants of the first missionaries to Kauaʻi, Abner and Lucy Wilcox, who arrived in 1836 from Boston, Massachusetts.
