Waipio Valley...Amazing!
We had to get to this fall. It was too much to pass up.
Hanalei...what a trooper. She has been on some amazing hikes for a three-month-old.
We found a tree with a fruit that looked like a bread fruit. I think it might be a Jack Fruit. It was growing from the trunk of the tree and not the branch...strange.
It got pretty thick in here with beautiful plants.
We also found a guava that Mike and Kendra both enjoyed.
Something about barbed wire fences that gets Rusty all fired up.
This is where we had to say good bye to Hanalei. No, we didn't leave her by her self. Kendra volunteered to stay with our sleeping baby. I think Kendra and Hanalei were glad they didn't have to swim through the cold, deep river water.
Off we went on the trail that crossed the river too many times to count. On our way we spotted this gem. A place to....
Jump of course! Rusty tried a gainer first but found it wasn't high enough to get that rotation.
Mike decided to save face and jump in feet first.
This jump may not seem that exciting, it wasn't much when compared to other cliffs we've jumped. But the view, hands down the best.
We went through some bamboo forests.
And before long we had made it to one of the tallest falls i've ever seen.
What a fabulous day! Thanks Kendra for watching Hanalei.

This picture for some reason reminds me of the last scene of Goonies, after they find the treasure. Pretty.
So this is Waipio. A little prettier Than the Waipio of Oahu. To get here you have to either walk down a very steep road or four wheel drive it. The last time we were on the big Island we walked. It was a lot nicer driving. You get to this black sand beach and some amazing views.
Hanalei was not too excited about the wind, so I covered her with Kendra's surong. She eventually feel asleep. 
The waves were crashing pretty high on the rocks. I think Mike and Kendra could have stayed there all day. THe ocean is a powerful and mesmerizing force. 
The ocean carved this rock into a beautiful sculpture.
Beyond this drift wood you can see the end goal. A waterfall. When we came last year there was a second falls that was even larger. It was amazing. I guess they haven't had as much rain this year because we passed right by the place and it was completely dry.
THe Prize.
Hanalei was happy to be done with the hike and under some trees.
