Hawaii Trip (re-edited) Part 2

Dec.26 
The next morning, we woke up at 7:00 and managed to get out of our hotel by 9:00. Today my mom had said we would go to a canyon. So, we drove and drove until we got onto a mountain. We started driving up the mountain, and it took forever for us to get there. Once we reached, we knew the drive was of no use when we couldn't see the canyon because of fog.  we went to some different stops on the mountain. The last one was a hiking area on the canyon. We were actually walking on the side of a canyon. Soon, my mother started to worry because we were not equipped with the right hiking material. So, we walked back and drove to our hotel. The side of Kauai we had just visited was rainy. What is amazing about Kauai is that when it is raining on one side, it is shining on the other side. We were on the sunny side of Kauai. Once we reached our hotel room, we got dressed to go into the swimming pool. My dad and I did a little bit of swimming moves and tricks. Then we returned to our hotel. This time we took a bath and put on our regular clothes. We were going to go on the rounds around the backside of our hotel. There was a private snorkeling and swimming cove there also. Sadly, we were not ready for this and so we  couldn't swim there. We went on a trail at 5:00. At this point everybody started leaving other than us and a woman and her daughter. It seemed weird but we just went on further into the trail. Then some water struck us hard to make us think why they had left. It started raining. First it was minute, and then soon it started pouring. We did not have a car, so, we had to walk back from where we had come from. We were drenched by the time we reached our hotel. We had to change clothes one last time for the day and sleep.
