Paddling in Hanalei

Today I took the inflatable kayak out to paddle the Hanalei River.  I forgot my regular kayak paddle and had to borrow a friend's paddle for stand-up paddleboarding.  Perhaps needless to say, I recommend using the proper paddle.  I made it almost to the Hanalei Bridge before turning around and going out to a sandbar at the mouth of river where it meets the bridge.  They say it takes about 2-3 hours to paddle.  I took two hours.  I plan to return and explore further up the river on a later venture.  One of the side tubes also started to deflate, but as far as I can tell it was because I did not full tighten one of the valves and then sat on it in a peculiar way.  Thankfully I fixed the problem and remained afloat!

In any event, it was glorious.  What a place to call home!
