We had to get out early for our tour of historic Waimea, first landing of Captain Cook in 1778, sugar town and early port for whalers.
A charming woman with 80+ years of long, fine stories rich in all that is Aloha and life in Kauai was our guide. She didn’t take us around the town as I expected…but it was fun anyway and the town itself has an historic walking route with great signs for all the stops. Next time we’ll do that.
Hawaiians are nuts for genealogies and our guide was no exception. During the tour of her church’s graveyard we learned how she was related to all the families represented.
