1 We're at the Judd Trail this time...a 1-mile loop that took us through a beautiful pine forest and by a pool we couldn't resist slipping and sliding down into :)
2 Liisa - love this photo of the wee babe in the woods!
3 Trailblazers indeed!
4 Me, Sam and Ben :)

6 Love this shot of Ben just waking up from a hiking nap :)
7 Kathy and girls with another great bamboo hiking pole! Kathy has an eye for them!
8 Ben and me :) Thanks for the great new pack, Dave!
9 These pines were amazing - very very tall. Still am not sure if Cook or Norfolk. I think Norfolk pines, brought here to make masts.
10 Or swords!

13 Back in my favorite hiking shorts - cargo pants from the Old Navy boys' junior section :)
14 Sword fight!
15 The children were a little weary - no problem, Kathy is strong!
16 Snacks revived them :)
17 The jackass ginger pool - apparently a donkey was roped near this pool long ago. And there is ginger growing nearby.

19 A little precarious getting down there, but worth it.

21 Ruins of Kaniakapupu...King Kamehameha III's summer palace. Very interesting place to visit. Apparently a luau for 10,000 people was held here. This was where he entertained foreign celebrities and dignitaries in the mid 1800s.
