Lihue!!!!!!!!!!! We were so excited to get to Kauai, but I am definitely glad we stopped in Oahu for a short time. I wish we would have had more time, especially to hook up with my cousin Nate that lives in the Honolulu area. I didn't want to inconvenience them, and now I wish that I would have!!
We hit up the Walmart in Lihue and wowza, the prices are steep. We stocked up on drinks and decided to rent all our gear so we won't have to worry about taking it back.
The resort we are staying at is beautiful!!! We lucked out and got a room right next to the waterfall and pool. It is a typical time share with games, DVDs and a cool clubhouse. The unit is huge, but super outdated. Retro-ish with a cool bar area and lots of wicker. Clean and huge with two big bathrooms, full kitchen, and washer and dryer = fantastic! We definitely could have fit a second family in here easily, and we only paid for what any other resort would have cost for one night, for our entire week. We got hooked up! Thanks Bob and Sandy!!
When we checked in the poor girl was super sick. She was such a mess, crying and you could tell she just could barely stand up. I felt so bad for her but immediately went in our unit and washed our keys and everything she handed me with hot water and soap, yuck! I can't get sick on vacation!!!
The drive from Lihue to Princeville, where we are staying was so dark, definitely a lower key environment than Oahu. It is only 16 miles from the airport but takes 45 minutes with a mostly 25 mph speed limit. Much slower paced than we are used to, that's for sure! We can't wait to go explore in the morning. This week is going to go by too quickly, I can already tell!
