Last day on the island

On our last day in Kauai, we toured a portion of the National Tropical Botanical Garden not far from the B&B in Kalaheo. In addition to the great beauty of the valley leading to a secluded beach accessible to the public only by boat, the gardens had interesting collections of tropical plants from many Pacific islands as well as native Hawaiian species.


The last photo is from the deck of the B&B where we spent the last night, looking down toward the ocean. Cows had been in the field just a few minutes earlier, and roosters were still crowing as they seem to do much of the day for most of the island. After a while, you don't seem to notice it.
