Friday morning hikes are just my style!

So today Austin and I went on another cool hike on a trail called Maunawile.  It is supposed to be a short hike and there are supposed to be a super awesome waterfall at the end, but we didn't make it that far on account that I had to work at 2 so we ran out of time, and Austin lied, I mean got confused at how long it was :)
Mmmmmmm I picked my first guava straight from a guava tree! And then ate it!  It was so ridiculously delicious!  Be careful of the seeds though!
 We didn't make it to the top to see the waterfalls at Maunawile, but we still got to see this awesome view at the halfway point
 And this was the awesome view just to the left of that previous awesome view!  I love the way the clouds touch the top of the mountains!
 Don't forget to click on the pictures to get a full size view!
 Austin convinced me of these delicious tasting purple berries that grow in the trees.  He hoisted me up so I could pick a few and then we feasted.  They are super bitter, but excellently delicious
 Did we make it there?  Nope!  There was a sure fire attempt though!
 See that mud on my forehead?  Yeah I'm badass, that's right!  Even my bright blue eyes can't fool you! ha!
 Smelling the sweet sweet oxygen from the immense amount of Hawaiian trees.  Breath Deep!!

 Since we didn't make it to the waterfall at the top, we stopped along the river and pretended we made it to the waterfall.  OK OK, really we pretended we were gnomes, and gnomes would definitely think that the water splashing over the rocks was like a 90-foot waterfall!! 

Of course, only I got eaten alive by mosquitoes...  Luckily there is not West Nile Virus here!!!!

If you ever get to Kauai, hike the Hanakapi'ai trail on the Na Pali coast. --jeremy
