Accidental Beach Day!

It was a late start for me today since I stayed up last night watching a movie with Mother.  But I managed to get ready fairly quickly.  Unfortunately, Brother #4 had a high fever and Mother and Father suspected that he caught a cold.  He got some medicine and we made our way out, hoping to find the Secret Lava Pools described in the Ultimate Guidebook to Kauai, and along the way we stopped for some shave ice at the same place we stopped yesterday.

The wait was long and it took a while to eat the shave ice, so it took around 1 hour for the whole affair.  Mother also split from the group to get some coconuts, but she saved some for us.  Then we drove towards the North side and then tried to find the Lava Pools.  Unfortunately, the path was blocked off by "No Trespassing" signs, so we decided to skip out on that.  Then we decided to stop by Anini Beach, where we stayed for 3 hours.

The waters were calm and perfect for the Baby.  The Brothers wished the waves were a little more dramatic since they wanted to whip out their boogie-boards.  But we still had a fun time lazying around in the water.  Although, it started to rain a little, but it was very brief.  Afterwords there was a rainbow, which was quite evanescent but still pretty.



Eventually, we dried off and ate some snacks before heading back to our cottage, where we got ready for bed and planned the next day.
