Day 10 - Kauai - Aloha Kauai

Waking up on our last morning in Kauai, there is definitely an air of melancholy hanging around the cottage.  Clicker, our gecko, is chilling on the headboard, sort of watching over us as we pack up our clothes, kick the mud off our boots, and search for our flight confirmations.  Our flight's not til 9pm though, so we're determined to enjoy the last few hours of our vacation.  We decide to come full circle and hit up one last trail.

We picked a pretty short hike near our cottage - can't even remember the name actually.  It was unmarked, and the only reason we knew about it was because of the Ultimate Kauai Guidebook (recommended).  Our last hike was an easy hike, but still really beautiful.  It was a great way to spend our last morning in Kauai. 

After the hike and one last outdoor shower (sob!), we had to pack up and leave the Surf & Ski Cottage.  Again, I must tell you, this is a GREAT place to stay.  We loved it.  If you go, say hello to Clicker for us.  And I hope you love the outdoor shower as much as me. Although I would think that is damn near impossible.

We still had a bottle of wine and a couple bottles of beer in the fridge, and obviously we needed to drink those before going home.  We headed out to the beach in front of the Islander on the Beach and soaked up the afternoon Kauai sun. 

A hike, a few drinks, sandy feet, ahi sammie, and a little more sun - the was the perfect end to a perfect holiday.  Really, our Kauai trip was incredible, outstanding, more than we could have hoped for, fantastic. 

You should go.
