Saturday we got up and looked some more around our place. The grounds and pool were amazing. It was fun to just be like kids and be able to leisurely get up and have breakfast together and then do whatever we wanted.
We decided to head over to Kileaua lighthouse. We were able to go in and tour the grounds and get right up to the lighthouse.
We drove all the way out to the end of the road by the Napoli Coast and walked along Ke'e beach. The weather was rainy/overcast. So much so that the Napoli Coast hike was actually closed and they had someone guarding it so no one would go up there. Too dangerous! That helped us get to be able to stop and park there though. Usually it's very difficult to get a spot due to large crowds.
The roads are interesting there. There are certain places that go down to one lane roads and you have to stop and wait in a line. They are very polite and 5-7 cars come from one direction and then the other direction goes through.
The roads up to Napoli get pretty windy and tight at times but the speed limit doesn't get above about 40 so you just wind your way along the tight little roads. It would have been really scary if the speeds were higher!
After driving we stopped in Hanalei and enjoyed Chicken in a barrel and a snocone. There is a nice plaza there that has shopping and a grocery store and some restaurants. It was really the only place close to Princeville for eating so we went back to the plaza several times.
Each evening upon returning from our days adventure we went to the hot tub and pools for about an hour and enjoyed them. Perfect ending to a perfect day!

This dog came with the place -- and very politely waited for
us to finish eating and share with him! |

Street people -- singing, harmonica and ukulele -- trying to earn
some money for their dinner. I think I could take Katie there
and get rich!!! It was a nice touch to go with our dinner. |
