Chickens, Chickens, Everywhere
Chickens, chickens, everywhere. On Kauai, the Garden Isle, we are finding wild chickens every where we go. It is fun watching them strut around like they own the place. Maybe they do. I have heard several stories as to where they came from. The one I like is the hurricane that hit Kauai scattered chickens from chicken farms everywhere. In reality, the chickens were wild here long before the hurricane.
There are reports of huge swells headed this way tonight and tomorrow, making snorkeling on the north shore of Kauai very dangerous. So South we go in search of calmer water.
On the way back to the condo we stopped by Hanalei to visit the Waioli Mission House and Church. This wonderful landmark was built in 1837.
Stepping back in time to when this was the home of the early Christian missionaries, Abner and Lucy Wilcox. This wonderful landmark in Hanalei Was restored restored in 1921 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and reflects the southern roots of its architect, the Reverend William Alexander of Kentucky. This church, it's wonderful stained glass windows is worth the stop.
Well, it's dinner time, NO we are not going to have chicken for dinner
Tomorrow we go south to see what we find.
