To see me off on a new adventure, some nearby friends on the island Kauai set out to have a bonfire farewell. The night began in a section of Lydgate beach part, near the child playground where we had hoped to have a nice island style intimate gathering around a fire on the beach.
The problem is that shortly after arriving there, and walking a bit down the beach, we’d come to realize that there wasn’t much drift wood to be had. Not to be denied, we changed plans and headed over to Wailua beach. Wailua beach oddly enough was also bare of drift wood. There has normally been quite a selection of ready to burn wood for just these types of occasions.
This being Kauai after all, and it turning out to be a beautiful evening, a little thing such as not much wood to burn didn’t keep us down. Luckily someone whose truck is completely packed with a party in a pickup… food, speakers, reggae music and of course some Christmas lights on the beach made for good times.
And now its off to Chile…
