Nikko - August 2024

We redeemed another PHR pool pass to the Nikko hotel.  We also went to lunch at their in-house restaurant which is a Japanese restaurant. The kids plate comes on an airplane-shaped plate.  The sushi and sashimi was really tasty.

Gadado Cave 2024

We guided Damon to see the Gadado Cave petroglyphs. They are beautiful and so neat to be in the same place as the same people as thousands of years ago. We did end up driving through somebody's yard (with approval) in order to get to the correct pathway.

Mushroom Rock

The Mushroom Rocks are along the Hila'an Beach.  We start at Tanguisson Beach, next to the Tanguisson Generating Station.  It seems not the best of locations for swimming...but such as it is when living on an island with limited space.  A brief jaunt through some jungle on a surprisingly easy-to-find trail to get to the Hila'an Beach where the Mushroom Rocks are towards the end.  The boys really liked playing around in the rocks since we were there during low tide. There are lots of little hermit crabs all over the rocks.
