Waimea Falls

I visited Waimea Valley in March, 2010, with my mother and my son. The hike was easy and there is a main path leading up to the waterfall that is paved the entire way. Swimming in the pool of water at the base of the waterfall is allowed. I got in to my waist but was not brave enough to swim over to the falls because the water was freezing! I told my mother that with a little heckling and peer pressure I would have done it. She said she would heckle me but by then I had already put my clothes back on and dried off, so instead we went to the gift shop to blow our money on crap, which is always a great time.
