I have finally finished sorting through the remaining pictures from Maui.  I took hundreds, but will just post a few of my favorites.  Most of these were taken during the latter half of our 8 day trip.

Maui…the first 3 and a half days

By webmaster | Published September 2, 2009

Thus far, our stay in Maui has been AMAZING!!!  Parasailing, snorkeling, waterfalls, blowholes, caves, lava tubes, and the Haleakala National Park were included on our first three and a half days.  Here’s some images.

A blowhole near the northernmost point in Maui. East northeast trade winds drive waves into the lava rock forming the coastline and erode "blowholes" where sudden rises in water and pressure levels create abrupt spewing of ocean water through the holes.
