A few photos from Kuaui
I didn't get to take as many photos as I would have liked on this trip. We were only gone for 5 days. Friday and Tuesday were dedicated mostly to travel time (the flights). Saturday was the wedding. Sunday was the after wedding celebration. Monday was ours to do what we wanted as long as we made it back in time for a dinner with the family. Reservations for the early evening were made without checking with us, and cut our hiking time a bit short. We had to turn back before completing the trail and de-mudify ourselves while taking turns changing in the car. Still, we did have fun.
I haven't had time to sort through the few photos I did manage to take, but until I get a chance, I hope these will tide you over.
The view from the hotel (Resortquest Islander on the Beach). The facility may not be luxourious or have all the ammenities that some might like, but the rooms are large, clean and recently upgraded. They have plenty of storage, including linen closets, and an armoure, and captains beds. They also offer pay by the day internet in the room or free wifi in the lobby. And you have a kitchenette with a larger than average refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker, cups, bowls, plates, glasses and flatware. There are two grocery stores a short distance away. If you plan it right you can cut your food spending by eating fresh foods or zappable foods. The staff is very friendly and helpful, though there is no elevator in these three floor buildings and the bellman only comes by once a day. So be prepared to tote your own luggage or wait a bit for someone to bring it by.
Coconut Market Place is right across the alley/parking lot, and offers a movie theater, touristy shopping, bars, quick and sit down restaurants, and Eggberts, which serves a palatable and large breakfast throughout most of the day (for you late risers). Kountry Kitchen, just down the road in Kapa'a is known for having the best breakfast in town (even the locals say so). It is just past the large ABC store and across from the library on the far side of the park. Park in the dirt lot by the library and cross the road, but get there early or you could have a 45 minute or longer wait. They open at 6am, for you early risers.
