Kayaking to Captain Cook Monument...

Our last day on the island we decided to spend it doing something really fun. We all wanted to kayak, so that's what we did. We kayaked to the Captain Cook Monument. It was a beautiful day for kayaking and snorkeling. We found this guy (in the Kabala) who is the heir to King Kamehahamea. We each bought a bag of Kona Coffee and got a free kayak rental with it! :) I think that is his way of going around some new law regarding the Captain Cook Monument; but we went with it! :)

It was so beautiful! I even got a free ride on the way home because Ben's oar broke and so he used mine and rowed all by himself! :)

After snorkeling for a few hours, and meeting some lovely people, we decided to head back. But it was beautiful over there. Kinda crowded though.

After that we headed to the Coffee shack for lunch. It had this gorgeous view...

We were really sad to say good bye to the island and our friends, but were excited to get home and see the little ones. Thanks to everyone who helped take care of them while we were gone! We have such great family and friends who take care of us! We REALLY appreciate it!

Mon. Feb. 13th- Kayak to Capt. Cook monument. Meet the heir of King Kameahamea and buy some great coffee (with a free Kayak rental included) and meet a whole slew of delightsome people while snorkeling. A very entertaining lunch at the Coffee Shack! Then off to Kua bay again for some more boogie boarding. Then off to Roy’s for a special Valentines dinner. YUM!

Tues. Feb. 14th- Costco in the AM for some gifts to take home. Ben & Taraka have an early early lunch and then catch their flight home! L
