Hawaii Day 2

So, the day started off with breakfast at the Condo. Then we made sandwiches for a lunch picnic. Our plan for the day was to head up Waimea Canyon. Along the way the plan was to do a little hiking along the Ditch Trail. However, the trail wasn't too well maintained so we couldn't go very far on the trail. We stopped at a couple of lookout points along the way. Actually we stopped a couple of times at the lookouts. The first time there wasn't a lot to see due to the cloud/fog coverage so when the sun came out and the cloud/fog cleared up we made a second stop at the lookouts. By the time we finished for the day we were ready for dinner and drinks at the Condo. What a fun day!

This is the road we drove down to get to the Ditch Trail for the hike that didn't quite happen. It was quite a road! Very bumpy. Gale, Kim and I were in the backseat and we got bounced around like rag dolls.



Kim on the part of the Ditch Trail that we were able to navigate.



Michael hiking along the trail. I think we maybe hiked a half mile before we had to turn back because the trail just kind of disappeared.



Gale at the turnaround point.



Dave the conquering hero!



And here's Kim!

Gale was really into her photography!



More photography.



And even more photography.



Did I mention she was really into her photography?



Kim decided to follow in Gale's footsteps and take a picture.
