After leaving Hilo last evening, we did a scenic cruising along some of the northern islands heading to Kauai, the oldest and the largest island in the Hawaiian group.  We began our circumnavigation of Kauai around 2:30pm Hawaii time and what spectacular views.  This is where Jurassic Park was filmed.  The Captain opened the bow of the ship for us and we had a narrator telling us about all the sites and history.  We've only experienced the ship's bow opened once before when we went through the Panama Canal.  It is a super experience being so close to the ocean and so open!!

Here are some of the photos, but they'll never do justice!!  It was a "YOU HAD TO BE THERE MOMENT"!!!

Continuing to cruise around Kauai through the night, docking in Nawiliwili, Kauai in the morning!
