Waimea Canyon

The first three days I was on Kauai, rain fell off and on.  With the temperature in the seventies, rain here is not a nuiasance, but a photo opp.  This pic was taken from the deck of my condo.

Sunset from a nearby deck, overlooking the pool and the ocean.  There are several honu (green sea turtles) that hang out in the sea right below the condo complex pool.

This is Kauai Kai, a coastal valley at Allerton Garden,  just downstream from McBryde.  See the previous post for pix from McBryde.

Fairly clear morning at Waimea Canyon.  By midafternoon this spot was socked in with fog and drizzle.

A canyon waterfall, with lantana in the foreground.

Same waterfall.,

And again.  The waterfall is perhaps 300 feet high.

Downstream view...ocean is in the far distance.  This spot is about 3500 feet above sea level.  Quite a massive canyon for a rather small island.

Cool palm leaf.
