Waimea Valley

It's Aloha Friday! Here is some inspiration for your weekend, pictures I took a few weeks ago up in Waimea Valley. This former playground of Hawaiian chiefs is now a botanical garden. Don't sit at home this weekend, go on a hike!

The stream ends in Waimea Bay 

Lava rocks, mondo and ti

There are quite a few peacocks

I love large trees - They are so sculptural

If you hike upstream, you get to a lovely waterfall

Mossy rocks are so beautiful!
