Day 9 - Ali'i Kula Lavender farm

Woke up this morning at 5:15am and decided to head out and doing a little fishing before the kids got up. Ended up Anna was already up and was having coffee. I sat and had a cup with her and then headed out to try my luck at a little surf fishing.

Headed back to condo and picked up the Fam at 7:45am to go see the Surfing Goat Dairy. It was quite a drive up to the Upcountry. Everything seems far away only because of the driving speed, but was truly only 20 miles away. As we arrived, it had a sign out front stating they were closed.

Oh well, on to the next - Ali'i Kula Lavender Farm. Luckily it was only 6 miles away. Flowers, flowers and more flowers! Pretty neat place. The gift shop had everything lavender. We tried Lavender coffee, tea, scone and ice cream – all was surprisingly delicious!

After about an hour or so of walking through the flower gardens we walked back towards the car and watched a handful of para-gliders come down the mountain. The place was located near Kula State Forest which was up the mountain. Apparently, the paraglide club go up to the top of the mountain and then glides down near the parking lot.
