Geocaching in Hawaii!!!

I am super excited that we finally made it out to Hawaii! It was a fantastic vacation and we did and saw so many cool things, including finding some caches.

Our first stop was in Kauai, where we enjoyed some snorkeling and ATVs along with general sightseeing. During one of the scenic drives, we found a geocache with a GREAT view: Hanalei Bay View.


We spent a bit more time in Maui, and as a result, had some more finds here. While driving the road to Hana, I noticed a geocache a little off the path that led us to a spot we wouldn't have even noticed and are VERY glad to have stopped at: As The Waves Pound The Lava Rock.


Further along on the same drive, we caught up with another cache hanging out near a general store. This was another fun stop with art by local artists and good snacks. And a lot of goodies to look through :) Beer, Ice-cream or Candy

Our last Hawaii cache was my favorite and a little bit of a surprise. Don't get me wrong - Hawaii is beautiful and all of the locations we went to were great little spots we wouldn't have found with a geocache guiding us there. Also - learned to download the caches cause there is pretty spotty service in many areas. In any case, I just love how different this part of the island was - dry, windy, and lots of grass - not like what I pictured all of Hawaii to be like. Cactus included :) Big Island Lookout. At this spot, in addition to logging the cache, I picked up a travel bug to transfer to my lovely dog-sitter Lysax13.

And, while not related to the caching, here are some pretty dang neat videos anyways from the trip.
