Kauai



We went to Kauai recently and visited my old friend Jason Posey.



It was our first time on that island and we loved it. This island is the epitome of a tropical island; lush vegetation, beautiful beaches, clear warm water and mostly undeveloped. We didn't see any bldg taller than 2 stories. But it's the GREEN-ness that really impressed us. Everything is so green there.


I ran almost every morning with the sunrise along the ocean on this kick ass little bike trail. It was like a tropical Burke Gilman trail. Here's some shots from the runs.



Kathleen did Qi Gong every day.



One peculiar thing about Kauai is the chickens. I guess ever since the hurricane a few years back, they have roosters and hens all over the place. Everywhere you go, hear these roosters shouting their ridiculous-sounding cock-a-doodle-do's.


A couple times we saw monk seals chillin on the beach.


We drove around quite a bit and saw all the scenic lookouts. Did a little hiking. Found a great little water fall in the forest and did some swimming.
