Kauai Trip- Days 2 and 3

Day 2 We wanted a low key beach day so we headed to nearby Anini Beach. I had read that this beach was great for kids and it did not disappoint! Many of the Hawaiian beaches have huge waves this time of year that make them unsafe for swimming but this beach is totally calm and shallow several feet out. Ben Stiller also has a house on this beach! Too bad we didn't see him. On our way to the beach we stopped at a famous lookout point!

Then it was time to hit the beach!

Day 3: One of our favorite things each morning was to sit on our lanai and watch the chickens and roosters! They are everywhere here! The ones near us realized early in the week that our kids drop a lot of food so they came to visit us pretty frequently! A few times we even had chickens get in our condo! LOL Here's one of our rooster friends

This morning we visited a lighthouse

Afterwards we took a hike to a waterfall. There are tons of hikes you can take in Kauai and this was definitely one of the easier ones. I would love to do more when the kids are older! Mason was such a trooper....he walked the entire way without complaining once!

 It's hard to tell from the picture but this frog was HUGE!

That evening we went back to Anini beach right at sunset!
