We went for a hike last weekend on Kealia Trail. The trail is behind an airport so it is imposing to get to. First we had to drive in on an access road at the end of the runway, with signs that say no entry all over the place. Then park next to the runway, with no fence separating us or anything from the planes. Then the first part of the hike has "restricted area" signs all over the place. Anyway, once you get past all of that it is a nice little hike.
M found a large ant nest. There are no native ants, bees or wasps in Hawai'i, but now they are everywhere. We even had a nest of ants in our printer for a while, little smashed ants would be on some of the pages we printed out, but now they have moved elsewhere.
The trail is very rocky. Below M is "lifting up" a boulder to see what is under it.
We just went for a short hike, partway up. I hiked the entire trail before the rest of the family moved here, it keeps climbing all the way to the end. I didn't want to push the kids too much; I wanted them to enjoy it so it is easier to go for more hikes in the future. Plus V was carrying F the whole way.
