The weather seriously had been amazing the last two weekends I hope the trend continues since we only have 3 weekends left on island. We finally hit this easy family friendly hike this weekend. Its called Kamehame Trail and is all paved and very similar in level of difficulty as the Mokapu Lighthouse hike. It isn't shaded so it left us all pretty hot and sweaty but none the less fun. If you do this hike make sure to bring sunscreen and water.
At the start of the trail head Noel thought she was tough enough for this hike, but soon found the hill the defeat her little legs. The other kids great with some whining and complaining of being hot, but honestly if you hit this hike around 8 or it would be a perfect time. Oh so we made it up the road and the pay off was this view. I think what struck me most on this hike was not only the view but the Hawaiian view on Ohana (family). I have several times now been on hikes and ran into big groups of Hawaiian families and friends hiking. Many are out of shape, but still smiling, laughing and cheering one another on. They have always greeted me and my family with large smiles and ahh on how great my little kids are at hiking. They always offer to take a picture and I couldn't be more pleased to have shared this island with many amazing Hawaiians.
