Visit Kaua`i: Kukuiolono Park

We stumbled upon Kukuiolono Park when my teammates were looking for a place to rest.  They wanted to find a place they could park in shade, so while they rested in the car, I explored the park.

The park is located at the Kukuiolono Golf Course, and includes numerous sculptures and some paths to walk along, as well as a Japanese Garden and a Hawaiian Rock Garden. 

The rock garden was very intriguing, as numerous rocks were on exhibit, and I found it so interesting to read about the background of the rocks.  

As I perused through the garden, a sense of reverence came over me, and it just felt so special to be able to get a glimpse of traditional culture and how natural objects became so integral to every day life, whether for fishing or sourcing salt.
