Thursday January 21
It was a drizzly morning. Took a hike in the Iao State Park. Short but scenic. It features the famous Iao Needle. It is a 2,250 Ft high basalt core rock which has survived eons of water carving it into the shape it is today. (the sign actually said "phallic like structure")
It is also the sight of one of the bloodiest battles. Sign stated "corpses filled the stream".

We drove to the Town of Wailuku. Had lunch in a little coffee shop. The sun came out again so we went back to hang on the beach at the condo. The water was delightful! to our left we saw a brush fire. Helicopters went back and forth carrying water. It ended up smoldering for days and tied up traffic on the only road in that direction off and on.
We had dinner at cafe o'Lei at the golf course. Good seafood, good drinks.

Did a little shopping at the only Walmart we saw the entire trip. Ruth the cashier gave us tips on places to go. She wrote them right on our receipt. Once again, we ended the day with drinks on the lanai. We may have been a bit loud today. The peel in the condo beneath us walked out a few times and shot us a few looks. 😇
