The last island we stopped at was Kuai. We spent all of Saturday kayaking up and down the Hanalei river. When we hit the ocean, we took some time to do some wave riding and snorkeling. This island is the really tropical one. They shot Jurrassic Park and the original King Kong on Kuai (along with a dozen other movies I can't remember). There was some pretty exotic flora and fauna, plus some incredible mountains. Since kayaking took all day and we were spent, we relaxed for the rest of the evening enjoying the hot tub and duck for dinner.
The next morning we woke up really early again... I think it was about 4 AM... to go see Waimea Canyon. It was basically a lot like the Grand Canyon except on some parts the canyon was covered with wildlife. Around noon, the boat set sail again as we cruised around the Napali Coast of Kuai. It was a nice coast line. I'm not sure how to describe it and I can't post pictures so...
The cruise ended the next day in Honolulu, where we did a little more shopping and did a lot of waiting at the airport. There were a bunch of fiascos on our return trip with the airlines being all screwy, but whatever. And that was basically my trip... pictures do it better justice.
