The trip to Hawaii was amazing. There was so much to do and so much to see that we didn't fit it all in and so we all have to go back for another round. Here some highlights to the trip. We went to a historic LA PEROUSE BAY Site of lava flow on Maui (1790's). In ancient times the area was known as a site where Huaka'i po, 'Night Marchers, roamed. These are restless spirits who are trapped on earth causing mischief at night. Every island has its tales about sightings of Night Marchers.
The most famous however is the Pipiwai Trail. Located above the Gulch, it is one of the best hikes on Maui. It is 4 miles round trip, gaining 650-feet in elevation. There are several great waterfalls along the route with the final destination fall being Waimoku Falls, falling 400-feet down a sheer lava rock wall. This was absolutely beautiful and more than well worth the hike and the drive on Hana highway which made both Nicholas and I car sick (me more than Nicholas).
The tree's are amazing. They are huge and look scary but the most massive things I have ever seen.
LAHAINA TOWN Once the whaling capital of Maui, this historic and colorful town is today the art center of Maui. There is this incredible tree in the town center with all these huge intricate branches that branch out to other trees in that same square.
The Croc's
Nicholas and I bought matching sandals to commemorate our trip to Lahaina town Hawaii.
McGREGOR POINT LOOKOUT - There were record number of Whale sitings while we were there and this was the funnest part for me I love watching the whales come up for air. See the blow hole.
