Day 5 was my final full day, but my friends stayed two more days. We were supposed to go on a sunset sail along the Napali Coast, but due to weather conditions they had to change course and go to the Kipu Kai Coast instead.

The trail was pretty treacherous with lots of tree roots and loose dirt. Two out of the three of us fell at some point due to the loose dirt making us slip. Anyway, the scenery was totally worth it! This was actually at a lookout after the hike It was a little hazy that day After the hike, we went back to Poipu and saw the turtles in the daylight. This time, however, we were a little too early to see them coming in, but there were a handful already on the beach. We couldn't stick around to watch them coming in because we had dinner reservations to get to at The Eating House. I think I accidently posted this drink on the wrong da...
