Rain, Rivers, Waterfalls & Ocean

I'm understanding what 'tropical' means in a whole new way...a fully experiential way.

We've been here four days now and we've seen rain each of those days, the grass always wet, clean, shiny....a bright and fresh shade of green.....and I believe it's like that through the year.

Plus there's no dust in Hawai'i.  It's volcanic mountains, so ground is just volcanic rock, and soil anywhere has green cover, so there's just no scope for dust at all, and it's just an abundance of water in every possible form.

Okay...to get to pictures.

Wailuku river that flows in their backyard


The river joining with other tributaries a short walk from home


Kamlesh aunty explaining to Diksha, how the river splits to form a little island in which their neighborhood sits, and how it meets again before joining the ocean.


Just before it joins the ocean


Where it actually merges into the ocean


The pacific ocean, a rainy morning


Aunty and Deech watching the ocean from across the road


Other side of that road


Another day, aunty and me by the little lighthouse at Kaipalaoa park by the ocean


Guess the waterfalls need another post...see what I mean by so much water :)
