The rest of the week in Kauai

Monday we went to Kilohana and did the train ride with the girls. Its a ride on an old sugar plantation train the tells the story of Kauai plantation history. Its a 40min venture with a stop to visit and feed wild pigs. Along the way we saw taro, pineapple, banana trees, papaya, coffee and tropical flowers. After our train ride we had lunch at the Gaylord restaurant. Good food, not so friendly service. On our way home we visited Kauai's Humane society, Very impressive building. They also have an attached dog park which is very convenient.
Tuesday we drove up through Waimea Canyon(the grand canyon of the pacific)We packed our lunch and had a picnic. The girls were a little impatient on the drive up. Many stops with gorgeous veiws along the way. A must see. Pictures just do not do it justice.
We also cramed in alot more. Spoting horn, Poipu beach, Opaka Falls, Wailua Falls, A visit to Kauai Coffee, Lydgate park,Glass Beach, Kauai Shar-pei Kennels(almost) and A boat ride down wailua river to Fern Grotto.
