Update 6
Left the "jungle" hotel --which was so well camouflaged that Rog missed the drive 4 times--ate one more hippie breakfast (Elsi's idea) of papayas stuffed with yogurt & nuts and a rambutan -a fruit that was almost scary looking with large red tentacles cradling almost transparent, jelly like center. We drove north today looking for waterfalls & find them we did! We also wandered through many small older towns that made us think this was not the $$$ side of the island. Saw rusty roofs, lots of well used pickups--many with people riding in the back and the sign at the gas station read: Don't pee on the post by the trash can. As I stood reading the sign, the clerk said, "Ain't it a shame you have to make a sign like that...and they still do it...MEN!" We took a side road--or maybe it was a lane--that went through a cow pasture where we spotted a farrow pig & ended at...a waterfall! At 7 pm, we hopped the plane back to Oahu...so I finally got to walk on Waikiki Beach.
