Well we got in yesterday afternoon, after a delayed flight out of Oahu to Kauai. It has been raining in Kauai intermittently, but is still wonderfully warm after the recent cold spell in Aptos. Today, I got up a 4am local time, and got a run in before it warmed up. The area around Poipu has changed, but not dramatically since we were here last. Elaine got a house, Hale Ohe, right on Baby Beach. We have rented houses along this section of Poipu 4 or 5 times. They have all been unique with beautiful views.
I picked up a GoPro camera last week. I modified the underwater housing using a Blurfix adapter which fixes the focus, filter, and fogging issues of the stock GoPro waterproof housing. Where we are staying at near Whaler’s Cove is great for snorkeling as a small river runs into the ocean. I have observed lots of fish, some turtles, and sharks once in awhile off the point, once you get out of the fresh water dumping into the ocean. So, hopefully the camera will get a chance to take some good video.
