Last day in Hawaii

We toured the west part of Molokai and found it to be quite dry.  Some remote and beautiful beaches.  There was more development on this part of the island prior to 2008 but in 2008 the land owner that owned a ranch which covers approximately 1/3 of the island closed up shop.  Looks a bit like a ghost town now but there are a few big houses that have been built recently so perhaps things are starting up again.

The post office.

Stop for coffee on our way.

Along the west coast of Molokai there are several Fish Ponds.  These were built 700 to 800 years ago. They were able to keep fish in these ponds which were originally reserved for the Chief.  This one was just to the west of our resort.

On our last day we went to a secluded beach approx. 20 miles west of our resort.  How nice is it to have the beach to yourself?

That evening we went to Paddlers Restaurant as they were having a Hula show.  It was great entertainment but I think the restaurant was overwelmed by the number of people.  

The following day we were having a leisurely morning as our flight wasn't leaving until noon.  Thankfully I decided to check on the flight and our flight had been moved up an hour and a half and we didn't know!  We barely made it to the airport.  If we'd missed our flight we would have missed our connection in Maui for our flight home!  As it was we had a wait of four hours at the airport in Maui then we were on our way home.

Wonderful trip.  Goodbye Hawaii....until next time!
