Friendship Garden

IMGP2492  View of Kaneohe Bay from the top of the smaller loop. IMGP2500  Sorry it's blurry, but you have a view of the trail. You'll want to hold hands in some areas to avoid stumbling over roots or rocks but overall it's doable for a toddler. IMGP2497  Lots of nice things to look at! IMGP2490  Staring up at a banyan tree.
IMGP2496  My little buddy, Sam :) IMGP2562  Our first family hike to the Friendship Garden in Kaneohe. We're gear-testing Sammy's new pack and sunglasses! IMGP2566 IMGP2567  A note from a visitor thanking those who care for the Friendship Garden, a community project in Kaneohe.
IMGP2568 IMGP2572  Checking out the valley shaded by a bamboo forest. IMGP2575  Sammy learned about the "heart" shape from my friend Ang who visited in Feb. He pointed out the "hearts!" today on the trail :) IMGP2578  We were looking at small spores underneath a fern leaf when we noticed this guy checking us out!
IMGP2579 IMGP2580  Coconut island where marine research and dolphin training are conducted. IMGP2585  Smooth! Big one and little one, too! IMGP2589  A broken one serves as a good trekking pole.
IMGP2593  Which way is down, Sammy? IMGP2596  Roots formed a big S for Sam! IMGP2597  Yum - raisins in the garden after the hike. IMGP2598  Nice to have Daddy on the trail with us!
IMGP2599 IMGP2601  A raisin for daddy! IMGP2603  Off to the tide pools to cool off!
