Maui 26 April

What a day. We got up and had a 5:20 am flight to the Island of Maui. We were not sure what the plan was but we decided to go whale watching first, hunt for water falls, visit the volcano (yep another one) and then go to the Iao Valley. The photos below are just an example of the great time we had. The whale watching was a 2 hour cruise on a very flat and calm ocean where we saw a Mother and her calf. WOW this was an great experience. Hiked into a water fall and got luck to capture a long exposure since I did not bring the tripod. Learned a lesson, always bring the tripod. Next we drove to the summit of Haleakale Volcano in the Haleakala National Park. It is somewhat difficult to tell the depth of the volcanic crater due to the constant clouds that filled the basin. As they moved out a new cloud formed. Beautiful. Maui is a stunning island that really caught my eye. I will be going back some day.

The best part is that we rode to the airport in a stretch Limo.
