Detroit Travel Guide: Plan Your Perfect Trip to Detroit

Julie Last updated: January 24, 2021 United States 7 Comments

I wasn’t expecting much and then I spent two days wandering around Detroit in the pure bliss that occurs when a place totally blows away all of your preconceived notions. Maybe …

This was one of our favorite experiences in Hawaii...a doors-off helicopter ride over Kauai.

The helicopter can carry a total of five people: the pilot plus 4 passengers. Three people sit up front and 2 sit in the back. The pilot makes the determination who sits where, based on weight.

Since there are no doors on the helicopter, everyone is harnassed into the seats. It's a very windy ride (no surprise there) and you will get wet if it rains (it rained a little bit during our ride).

We LOVED this. It's thrilling and it is so easy to take photos...not only can you look down out of the helicopter but you are not shooting through glass.

Here are just a few of our photos, but at some point we will write more about the experience and we have a lot of photos to share.

Isn't it wonderful when something totally beats your expectations? For us, that was the Maha'ulepu Heritage Trail.

This is an easy, beautiful coastal walk along the south coast of Kauai. If you walk the entire trail, it is 4 miles round trip. It starts on Shipwreck Beach next to the Grand Hyatt and goes out to Punahoa Point. Along the way, you have a chance to see seals and sea turtles.

Here are a few pix from the Big Island of Hawaii. It's been a busy 3 days, just enough time to see some highlights, but more time would have been better. That's OK, we don't mind a return visit sometime. 😊

The highlights were Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, snorkeling at Two Step, hiking out to Makalawena Beach, visiting Pu'uhonua O Honaunau National Historical Park, paddle boarding in Kailua Bay, and kayaking in Kealakekua Bay.

Tomorrow we fly to Kauai, where we hoping to relax a little bit (with a tropical drink under a palm tree would be nice 🌴🍹).

Kapalua Beach, Maui.

We first visited this beach while hiking the Kapalua Coastal Trail. It was so pretty that we came back the next day to go paddle boarding.
