Coconut and Sugar Cane
... stop was the Tropical Plantation. This beautiful location is seated on the edge of the sugar cane fields and backs onto the West Maui Mountains. Although it's free to visit the gift shop (a very nice one!), they charge to take you on a tram through the ...
The Road to Hana
... top of Haleakala. Today we drove around it. We were picked up at 7:30 for a trip to Hana, on the far southeast corner of Maui. Once we were on the Road to Hana which goes along the base of the volcano, it began to drizzle with rain coming in from the ...

Aloha from Maui!
Aloha everyone! I arrived yesterday in Maui after a bit of a stressful day... my dad and I arrived at the airport 45 minutes later than we intended to due to wake-up time miscalculation. A grumpy woman checked me in, and I cruised through ...
Lahaina, Maui - Day 3
We caught a 6am shuttle to the airport today and made the short hop from Oahu to Maui. The flight was nice and short and on time. However, when we got to the rental car agency they informed us we had no reservation. I dug out our ...
SHE SAID: Beach Bums....literally.
Late again. ... I know. I've been so busy doing nothing I forgot to blog about our day. We spent the entire afternoon on Kaanapali Beach. Huge with really hot sand. I wanted to go back again to see if I could find the turtle ...
Hawaiin Honeymooon
I had the best honeymoon ever!! Stayed in Maui. This place was exactly what we were looking for. The condo complex has it's own private beach with it's own snorkeling cove, RIGHT THERE!! We swam with sea turtles everyday and saw every kind of tropical ...
Still in Maui just more pics
Aloha Brah's, I had the most amazing day today. Stopped on the side of the road to Lahaina to see the Humpback whales offshore. I started to video the action and it was so cool. Whales everywhere in groups of two and three. There must have been ...
Oh Oh
... , past the crazy people paragliding (Sandra sighs) up into the cloud forest and some amazing views over miles of Maui countryside. O'o is an organic biodynamic farm created by the owners of I'o and Pacific'o restaurants (remember, where we ...
The Trek may be over but never the memories
From Rici - Hello my Fellow Trekkers and Travel Voyagers- I am home physically but still not here mentally or emotionally. My living room looks like my luggage exploded and I have just finished my last (4th) load of laundry. To say that this ...
Iao Valley
Each day we are getting more adjusted to the time. We were able to sleep until 6 this morning. We enjoyed coffee and breakfast on the balcony. We walked up and down the beach checking out snorkeling spots. We went swimming in our ...
Aloha - Greeting from Waikiki
Well, this is it - the last day of our trip. We have spent the last week relaxing in Waikiki - which is like Oxford Street with a beach! You can buy everything here, from dancing hula dolls to Cartier watches, then cross the road to the beach. The ...
twisty roads
... One of the top 3 "things to do" on Maui is the road to Hana. Hana is a small unremarkable town on the southeast coast of Maui so the attraction really is the one and only road to get there. From Pa'ia it hairpin-turns for 38 miles around the coast; ...
The Waterfall Hunters!
Today, we were not vacationers....we were adventurers! After realizing that we are both very pale, and prone to burning easily in the Hawaiian sun, we figured we would try to keep our sun exposure to a minimum prior to the nuptials...Hence, this ...
Maui
... restaurant around the corner from the hostel and then we played scrabble at the local coffee shop. We're only staying here for a night 'cause we're heading to Hilo tommorow. Maybe we'll venture out in Maui when we come back here on the 20th. Woohoo. ...
Of Planes and Palm Trees
... ! Our trip here was relatively simple. Or so we thought! One flight from Toronto to Vancouver and one flight from Vancouver to Maui. Ha! The flight to Vancouver went quite well -- it was very smooth and less than five hours. However, the fun began ...
Maui
... for any reason. we hate to leave Hawaii but the clock is ticking and at most we only have 6weeks left to do the rest of the states. it is truly amazing here a very very special place. i wish i had come here when i was 19 and learn't what i know now ...
This is the life
... sprouted up because (a) the local beach has most excellent gnarly peaks, and (b) some dude decides to sell wicked burritos. While Maui's Kihei is more like Miami. We pick up some groceries and sadly discover necessities are just as expensive on Maui as ...
Aloha from Hawaii
... things we did do while in Lahaina was go on a whale watching trip to see the humpback whales that spend the winter around Maui island. It was quite an insight to see the difference between how reserved the British are and the American aren't. Before we ...
Tattoos, hot bods and tight butts
This is a top pick! ... water, the speed the dolphin was moving – wish we’d had a proper video camera. Day 19 Wednesday 06/10 Lahaina, Maui Up very early and away on first tender. Nowhere on board open for brekkie. Sun not quite up so quite special ...
Lava Rocks!
Today wasn't a very active day. We started a bit late with a visit to the beach across the street. There were no red flags this morning, so we played in the waves a bit. It's quite easy to get past the breakers and bob about in the rollers where the ...
Short side trip to Hawaii
... studies now go clean these erasers. It was not widely publicized (I'm in the process of hiring a publicist) but Inger and I snuck off to Maui to hang out on the beach, do some hiking, bike down the volcano, and what more thing... what was it... oh yeah ...
Sabbath- Kaanapali & Makena
... . We basically went to the end of the road down there on the tip. We had never been farther south than the Maui Prince Hotel, so we saw some new sites a couple of miles beyond that point. The road became very narrow- barely one ...
Got Lei'd!
Well, after what felt like the two longest flights in the history of time, Matthew and I landed at 5:00 pm HST (that would be 10:00 pm to all you East Coasters!). We quickly got lei'd! We got to our condo at 7:30, looked up the closest ...
