A Maui Sunrise

Haleakala (meaning House of the Sun) National Park is known as a place to see one of the best sunrises. Seeing as it being our mini honeymoon, we thought it be awesome to see.


-Woke up at 3 AM
-Drove almost 10,000 feet in elevation
-Ridiculously scary roads, pitch black, Hubby thinking he is Ken Block
-I might have feared for my life a few million times (re above)
 -Sans coffee, because nothing is open at 3AM
-Windy 30 degree morning
-Better be a damn good sunrise


WAS IT WORTH IT???













YES.


Special thanks to Hubby for snapping the gorgeous pictures while I was huddled inside trying to stay warm and impatiently waiting for the sun to make her appearance.


Oh and stopping by the Kula Lodge for warm coffee and breakfast is a must if you ever find yourself in Maui!!!



ALOHA!

The Road to Hana


One of the things we decided to do while in Maui was the 52 mile drive to Hana. 

We grabbed a Hana tour guide CD and went on our way.

Lots of gorgeous views and so much greenery. It was beautiful.

Hubby loved the curvy narrow roads. Me, not so much.


Rainbow Eucalyptus Trees









Are you ever amazed at the beauty of nature? 

God surely creates some magnificent masterpieces.


Aloha!


PS- Highlight of my day yesterday? Hubby coming home in his uniform. Hubba hubba!
