Spouting Horn, Kauai

With rain in the forecast, we decided to try to make the most of the day but also knock off some "touristy" stuff that didn't require sun.

We headed over to Spouting Horn which is only a few miles from Poipu Beach.  It is a lava formation that allows the water pushed by waves to shoot up through the rock, almost like a geyser.  An adjacent spout isn't low enough to allow water to shoot out, but the waves push air through it, causing a low growl to come through the rocks.

After getting our fill of Spouting Horn, we chased around a few chickens.  They are everywhere, a result of Hurricane Iniki which hit Kauai in 1992, destroying the coops that kept the chickens which now run wild all over the island.  You are reminded of this fact every morning.
