Since it's supposed to rain all day tomorrow and we have to clean out the refrigerator and eat an odd assortment of various and sundry items and pack for leaving Monday morning, we decided to celebrate my birthday a day early.
It was a leisurely day, starting with brunch at The Garden at Common Ground. Such a relaxing atmosphere, sitting outside, surrounded by the gardens of this organic, sustainable farm. And the food is delicious and fresh with lots of gluten free pastry choices.
We walked down the 180+ steps to Pu'u Poa Beach, which is below the famous St. Regis Hotel.
Then one also has to walk back up. Bob had his physical therapy today!
The forecast was for rain and it was cloudy and gray all day, but the rain never came. I think the gray was to help us get used to going back to Indiana. The waters are pretty turbid in Pu'u Poa Beach in the winter but Raymond wanted to get in some more snorkeling. The rest of us sat on the beach and people watched. It's amazing what one can see if one looks long enough! (You can thank me later for not posting those photos.....)
My birthday wish was to spend the last 2 evenings here watching the sunset at Ke'e Beach. With ChocoVine in hand, we headed for the beach. (Thanks for the tip, Char!)
The sun did set, but we couldn't see it. But it was still beautiful-- and the water was wild this evening. One of my favorite spots!

We ended another wonderful day with dinner at Postcards Cafe in Hanalei. We've had some wonderful food here but I think this one tops them all. They advertise "Superb Seafood and Gourmet Natural Foods Cuisine" and they certainly lived up to that claim. Definitely a stop to make the next time you are in Kauai!
Good Night Happy Day!
