Last Day! After our Hanalei sunrise shoot, Tip Top breakfast and power nap, we headed out to Old Koloa Town, where it all began for me . . . the place where in 1902 my great grandparents first settled and started a new life . . . for themselves, their children and their future descendants.
The Koloa History Center was my main focus of attention, and unlike my previous post, I took a lot of pictures here.
