kauai day 5: sleeping giant

this day did not have the best start, we headed off on an "easy hike" to see a few waterfalls- well the easy hike tried to kill us-

the trail was so muddy we both slipped more then a few times and got filthy -and angry! falling in mud is only funny when pete is doing it! (hee hee)

although we did manage to make it to the first set of falls

but we decided to bail on the trail early and pick out a better one-

thats how we found the sleeping giant trail

sweet shoes with black socks pete!

but after falling every other step and being covered in mud after the first hike i don't think i looked much better

and the view from the top made it all worth while!


after a long lunch - we found this pretty much abandonded dirt road that led to another light house, yipee!

and here is pete on "illegal land" with surveillance cameras all over and postings that read "do not cross-US security land- you will be persecuted" ...he wasn't too worried...

but if the government takes him in the middle of the night- we will all know why!
