It would be easy to imagine dinosaurs ranging across the meadows and stalking prey in the forests. What an amazing ride. We helicoptered into the valleys and along the waterfalls, just like in the Jurassic Park movies. Unlike them we didn’t land and never uttered the words, ‘Clever girl.’

We took a helicopter tour of Kaua’i, recreating some of the scenes from Jurassic Park which was in part filmed on the island. We flew into Waimea Canyon, just like in the movie. It was beautiful and a totally different perspective and sense of scale (enormous!) from the driving day trip we took on Thursday.

Here are a few more pictures from the trip.

I edited the 120+ pictures taken down to 60+ which was subsequently culled to these 9 to keep from boring my readers.
