This is as we are pulling out of the harbor. In the right picture is
a island off in the distance that looks like a cloud on the water. This
is a private Island named Niihau.
This island has been closed to outsiders for so long that it has earned
the nickname 'The Forbidden Island'. No other place in Hawaii has more
successfully turned its back on change than Niihau, which has no paved
roads, no island-wide electricity and no telephones. The island is a native
Hawaiian reserve, with 230 residents, and it's the only island where Hawaiian
is the primary language. The entire island, right down to the church, belongs
to the non-Hawaiian Robinson family who run a huge ranch and are highly
protective of the Niihau's isolation. The 70-square-mile (181-sq-km) island
is 17 miles (27km) west of Kauai and accessible only on pricey helicopter
tours.
The smoke is the farmers burning the cane fields. the picture to the
right is us passing by the military cite where they play war with real
bombs.
The left photo is of the beach where they play army with the smoke from the cane field in the background. The right picture is of the Napali coast line and the passengers of the boat.
Lots of caves and dolphins were with us most of the trip.
This is the island that jurasic park, 7 days, 6 nights was filmed on. See if you can recognize the pictures of where the film was shot.
that is a sea turtle. They are all over along this coast line
These are some colorful fish even tho you cant see the colors!
