Kalapaki Beach.
I spoke to one of the local, he said those wood debris you see on the beach are from Tsunami in Japan.
Wailua Falls.
This is a famous water falls on island. If you could remember a show in the 70's Fantasy Island, this water falls it was on the show introduction.
I forgot to take picture on the warning signs in this area. If I could remember, it said something like DO NOT CROSS THE RAILS, OR ATTEMPTED TO CLIMB DOWN THE WATER FALLS. PEOPLE HAVE DIE HERE, AND FATAL INJURED.
To be honest, I did plan to climb down to the bottom of the water falls. To make sure, I have asked to one of the local boy just came up from the bottom of the water falls. He's nice enough offering his helps to take me down to the bottom to take picture, but he said the trail is very slippery, and it's very hard to get back up on the trail. If I get hurt, I need to figure out the way to get out without the authority helps. Otherwise, I will go to jail, after I got my treatment in the hospital.
You don't know how disappointed I'm not to get down to the bottom of the water falls. May be one day I will get this picture for you.
It's only easy way to get down if there no rain in the area for a week. Yeah right! you are talking about the wettest place on earth.
Very beautiful place Kauai!
ReplyDeleteInteresting about the wood debris from Japan. Soon they will be coming up on the beaches here too. Very sad for the people who were effected.
I can see why you would want to climb down to get more views of this waterfall! I would be so tempted to look for all the good photography angles by following trails...
That is interesting about the debris.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you could go downstream a ways where the trail would not be so steep and work your way back to the Falls. Sure would be nice to capture from below.
OK, I have to agree with everybody else, that is interesting about the debris from Japan!
ReplyDeleteI like the top shot though, that looks like it could be you standing there.
The middle close up shot of the falls is amazing! I'm not sure taking a photos is worth risking life or limb over, not to mention the chance of slipping and falling and breaking the camera!
Although I would probably try to take my underwater camera rig down there to get a few shots looking up into the falls as they are coming down but I'm kind of stupid that way! LOL
