And every sunrise is unique too:
Leilani and Sonja arranged some found objects into camp-art:
In the end, it’s good that we moved: not only was our new campsite quiet, it was sheltered from the wind, and it had the perfect little tree for Leilani to climb. And how she loves to climb. We turn around and she’s 6 feet up in the tree:
We went hiking on the North Powerline trail with Julian and a friend of his, Malia. It was hot and humid, but everything was lush and green (no color enhancement needed on these photos):
Ferns (native, I think):
And wild orchids (non-native):
Unknown flower:
We realized we are all very geeky hikers:
Junior geek looking at the GPS:
There is a little side trail that leads to a great view of the Hanalei River valley:
After the hike, Andy found some firewood that we brought back. Leilani was proud of how strong she is and how much she could help us carry:

Relaxing:
Jaya and her little sister Lila came to visit with their parents:
Leilani and Jaya played like old friends again:
And Lila charmed everyone with her smile:
Adam and Aditi:
Yeah! Loved the pics, wish you could be here this weekend, we’ll be camping at Anini and hopefully in that same spot. Jaya’s birthday party will be Sunday at the boat ramp pavilion with rainbow theme and ballons and double rainbow cake. Miss you and see you when you get in December!
