Cramming in the last of the fun

Monday was our last day, with our flight taking off at 10pm from Lihue. We really wanted to make the most of it and decided to do a little more driving around since we enjoyed it so much the day before. But of course we needed to hit this little beach hut for breakfast first. Our third and last time. 


Guy and his "loco moco" - he'd been tempted to order that thing since the first time we ate there. It was a hamburger patty on top of a bed of rice, topped with a bunch of gravy and a fried egg. Uh, yum? ...He said it was ok; I think he was a little disappointed. But what do you expect with those ingredients?

My french toast was pretty good:)


Saying goodbye to our over-the-top hotel. It was pretty amazing. Thank goodness for family hook-ups!

  


We drove as far in one direction as we could until we ran into a dead end. Which ended up being near this really cool cave so we got some more pix.



I got some snacks at this little truck... I guess I shouldn't have been surprised that they were gross... tasted like they'd been made years ago. Oh well;)

Stopped by Hanalei Bay, which was pretty fun. We'd heard people raving about this Bubba's Burgers restaurant. It was good, but we still preferred our little beach hut.



We still had an afternoon to kill and wanted to make the most of it. So we rented a double kayak and had a blast! We paddled up a river, which emptied into the ocean near Hanalei Bay.



We pulled up to the beach and hung out a while. Took a walk down the shore, and up the pier.





10pm flight home = exhausting! We missed the kids like crazy by this point, but were so grateful that they weren't with us for that plane ride! We are already making plans for a whole-family trip... maybe in another 10 years if we're lucky. Anyone with us?!!
