Aloha Friday ~ The Little Grand Canyon - Kauai

The Garden Island

Kauai - If you are trying to find "Old Hawaii", this might be the island you choose to visit.  It is the oldest island in the chain and the furthest west and gets the most rain.  But it sure is pretty. Hopefully these pictures will show just some of the scenery and majesty of what the Hawaiian Islands hold.  There is a certain mystic about these islands and Kauai reminds me the most of Sedona Arizona. When I first laid my eyes on "The Little Grand Canyon" I was in awe of how much it looked like majestic scenery of Sedona.  The islands and the people hold a special place in my heart.

Many films and TV series have been filmed here. Those who have had the opportunity to visit Kauai will most definetely be reminded of their visit when a scene is played.

Sheri,

One of our fave Yoga teachers is going to Kauai next month, we were just talking about it.  It definitely is worthy of its name as the Garden Island, and I love its canyon also, and what's not to love about Lappert's Ice Cream.  A

Oh my, you just made my day. I have been to all these places in Kauai, a couple of times, and can't wait to go again...hopefully later this year. These are absolutely beautiful photos - much better than mine. I even have several of those gray and red birds! And the Queen's Bath was a blast! Loved the Spouting Horn, but not the crowds

Jeff Dowler CRS - I am glad you liked the pics! My favorite excursion has been a helicopter tour from Princeville.  You see a lot more in less time then coming out of Lihue airport - (did that too) You are paying for the travel to the volcanoe area. If you fly out of Princeville you get there in under 5 minutes.

Sheri- those photos are amazing!  We have beaches here in South Florida, but nothing like these!

Kathy Streib - You are too modest!  You have some great beaches. That doesn't count the Keys!

Hello Sheri ... such amazing photographs and I wasn't aware you were such a wonderful photographer 

I have yet to photograph the islands of Hawaii and until then I will enjoy yours, your post has been featured to the group:

Robert 'VEGAS BOB' Swetz - Thank You again!  You will go crazy when you get to the islands. Everything is worth shooting.  Each Island has it's own unique flavor.  I will do a pictorial on Lanai and Molokai also. It has been awhile since I spent any time on Oahu so I don't have any recent images.
