Fourth Island of the holiday

From Kauai Day Trip
Could be the fifth if you count continental USA as an Island during my short stay in the first class lounge in LAX! It was also the shortest flight of the trip – I’m fairly sure I spent more time walking in the airports at either end of the flights than actually in the air!

Kauai being the oldest of the large Islands in Hawaii is by far the flattest – the long extinct volcanoes having been worn down by time and rain leaving some fairly spectacular valleys cut into the lava that has almost turned to dirt…

Kauai also boast the only navigable river in Hawaii – a good excuse for a tourist attraction!
