Favorites

Half of my pictures are on another computer, but here are a couple of my favorite pictures and favorite places.

I saw the sign for Lappert's Ice Cream in Hanapepe and I recognized it from some travel web sites. I loved the quaint porch along the front. I can just envision the parking lot filled with oldie cars and the porch filled with people of all ages wearing flip flops and Hawaiian shirts on a Saturday night. I also loved the Kauai Pie ice cream in a waffle cone! Yum


Andrew's footprints

The island is full of chickens and roosters. The story we heard repeatedly is that when Hurricane Iniki hit Kauai in 1992 the chicken farms and pens were destroyed releasing them into the wild. Without any natural predators they increased in population despite a foiled attempt to bring mongooses to the island to kill them. Now the chickens and roosters are protected by law.

I found them charming. The boys loved the cock-a-doodle-doo. And people seemed to get a kick out of Calvin and Andrew mimicking the roosters.

This has to be my favorite picture of me with both boys because it is the only picture we have together. We are at Waimea Canyon.


Once I get my other pictures maybe I'll post some more favorites.

Have you been to Hawaii? Any favorite islands or sites?
