Waipi'o Valley, Take Two

Last weekend I rented a car from a guy named Hank and drove to the opposite side of the island to meet my buddy James from Connecticut. He was on the island for a week with his wife and two friends. Festivities included:
  • Racing into the night to get to our campsite in time.
  • Waking early to go pick up James.
  • Taking the Buick Century sort of off-road on an attempt at a shortcut.
  • Back-tracking and taking the "long way" instead.
  • Hiking Waipi'o Valley to Hi'ilawe Falls! See my post of 1/8/11 to learn about our previous failure.
  • Drinking beer in an airport parking lot.
  • Drinking kava in Hawi.
  • Drinking beer on a beach.
  • Sleeping on said beach.
  • Lots of delicious parking lot sandwiches.
  • Rescuing a small family from their burning van.
  • Drinking at a bonfire.
  • Spending all day Sunday recovering.
Good times, as usual. Kana and I are working on our business model for a tour agency called "Misadventures with Jimmy and Kana (or Kana and Jimmy)". Pictures from the weekend are here.
