September 26- Last Day in Paradise

Today we bid farewell to paradise. On the way to the airport, we stopped at the Kilauea Lighthouse lookout. This is a very scenic vista. For a fee, you can walk to the Lighthouse.



We then had breakfast at Kountry Kitchen in Kapa'a. While the place is tackily decorated with roosters, the food is wicked ono. Rex and I both had omelets with sour cream and a banana mac nut pancake, the size of a large dinner plate. The coconut syrup, which I had to ask for, was so good. We both agreed that these were some of the best omelets we've ever had.

With some time to spare, we drove past Lihue to Poipu. Poipu is the resort area on the south shore of Kauai. It can be reached by either Route 530 (beautiful, tree-lined road) or 520. Poipu is home to Spouting Horn.



Spouting Horn is really worth seeing and hearing. The spout and its eerie wail are caused by water rushing under the lava shelf then shooting out of an opening. Spouting Horn spurts frequently so you're bound to see and hear it if you wait a couple of minutes.


We then went to the airport. We had to fly to Honolulu to catch our flight to LAX.
Note: We were able to check our bag all the way through to JFK.

I hope you've enjoyed reading my blog and experiencing our amazing journey. I truly enjoyed reliving our adventures while writing it. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at kitatbro@yahoo.com.

Aloha and Mahalo!
