Going to Hawaii (Kauai)

Recommended Posts

Ok I don't mean to brag or anything, but I am going to Kauai for a week (!!!!) on Saturday and doing research on stuff to do there...

Anybody been there? I already got some good tips from Geno and GFD (thanx guys!) .. anyone else got any "can't miss" things to do there? I am up for *anything* (well.. anything *not* related to SHARKS!!!!) :o

Get to the big island, and see the volcano national park. It's a life-changing experience seeing all that lava pour into the ocean.

Oh, and jump! I'll bet it's fantastically beautiful from up there.

Have fun, it's kinda hard not to.:)

Did I mention that you should take the helicopter tour of the Napali coast? Anyway, I never got to do that but me thinks it would be great. Hehe bring your rig, you could "fall" out of the heli...:P

Gotta go... plaything needs to spank me
Feel the hate...

Oh man, I cannot remember what island it was on (wherever cheeseburger in paradise is - Lanai?) but there is a "roadl" (a very small dirt trail that runs along the entire outline of the island). It is a slow drive (few hours), along some BREATHTAKING cliffs (great photo opps) and there are a FEW little places to stop and see along the way - Just really neat and not the normal tourist thing. Have a blast and if at all possible - YOU HAVE TO JUMP THERE. I have friends who took pictures and I can only imagine what it would feel like to be standing at the door for THAT exit.

Be safe and bring your sunscreen!

Dreams become reality, one choice at a time...

Dad's birthday is on the 10th and I'm going to try like HELL to get him over to Oahu and make a tandem jump.. and so I can jump too!

Hey Kris.. thanks for all those links, girl! I think my mom will really like the catamaran tour of the Na Poli coast. B|

Go to the Big Island and go SCUBA Diving with the GIANT Manta Rays (night dive)...

The guides plant a bunch of lights in a bay which attract plankton which attract the Manta's--- Those Manta rays are freakin huge! Super cool to see/have a giant sea creature swimming just inches away from you!
