Bike riding in Kapa'a

And on the sixth day...we bike!



Andy and I rented beach cruisers in the town of Kapa'a (Ka-Pa-AH)



It was overcast but we had incredible views.









About 8 miles into our bike ride the heavens opened up and it started to rain heavily on us. Of course we didn't bring any beach towels or hoodies to protect us from the rain. We got deliciously soaked.

It was a fabulous experience! The bike trail and the town of Kapaa was perfect to bike ride in. We still had fun after getting rained on. It was just a little chilly.



We decided to stop in Koloa town for some plate lunches.





Teri beef, rice with soy sauce and macaroni salad. The teri beef tastes like teriyaki beef jerky. The texture is so different from anything I've ever had on the mainland. And for 5 bucks, you get tons of food. I barely made a dent in the beef. (Plus at this point in the trip, I was majorly craving veggies.)



I found a stowaway gecko! We didn't notice as many geckos in Kauai as we did in Oahu but they were definitely around.



After plate lunches came time for Turtle Watch 2010. Can you spot the turtle's head poking out?



Or his body catching a wave?



I seriously sat for hours watching turtles play in the ocean.



Andy boogie boarded the rest of the time. He was having a blast getting slapped by the waves.

After some more boogie boarding, snorkelling and beach bumming it we decided we needed to eat. We went back to Casa Di Amici. It was THAT good.



I ordered the spicy fettuccine with sausage, coppa, peppers and a spicy sauce.



Andy ate the ocean. Quite cruel after all that snorkelling we did. It had green lip mussels, calamari, shrimp and fish. I don't really love seafood so I let him enjoy it.



He was very happy.



I was very blurry and full from all that pasta! DUDE.


Have you ever rented a bike while on vacation? Where did you do it?
