Uncle’s!

In addition to tubing, another thing you must do in Kauai is go to Uncle’s Shave Ice and get, well, shave ice! Cool and refreshing shave ice is something that is a must-do when you’re in Hawaii (regardless of which island you visit!) and Uncle’s definitely offered up some tasty flavors.  Okay, yes, it looks … Continue reading Uncle’s!

A Sugary Float

The most fun we had (in my humble opinion) on any excursion during our entire trip was visiting the Lihue Plantation, an old sugar plantation on Kauai.
