Island of Kaua'i-Part Two


At the overlook of Waimea Canyon. On one of the hikes that day, a lady told us that she had to get a picture for us in our matching "Aloha" shirts!
A very tenacious tree on the rim of the canyon. This has a very steep drop off.
Neal was in jeeper's heaven on the back trails of this island. Here we had to turn around. My head was pounding by the time I talked him into finding some pavement.

The stone lining this road were put here about 300 AD by the first Hawaiians, the Menehune people. They created a ditch lined with these stones and diverted water from the canyons up above to bring it to the valley for irrigation.
