Day 7 - Waimea to Hawi or Rest Day

Before 2:00 PM, we were having lunch at Hawi. A slight downpour got us wet but we were dry before even finishing a burrito lunch. At 2:PM, we headed for Kapau 2 miles away to see the Kamehameha statue. Kamehameha was the king responsible for uniting all the islands under one rule. Tonight's lodging is at the Kohala Village inn at the cross road of hwy 250 and 270. Hawi is technically a crossroad town no longer than a block or two. Absolutely no place to go to at night except for dinner at the tourist acclaimed Bamboo Restaurant. A bit on the expensive side but a good treat for today's climb.
