Last days in Maui

This is a doozy guys!

We spent most of or our Maui time enjoying the resort life and relaxing but we did manage to get a few hikes in. The first was a pretty easy hike dubbed the "blow-hole" hike. It was along this really rocky coastline and was a perfectly gorgeous day.  


 
 




The goal was this natural hole in the rock that gushed like a geyser whenever waves crashed below it. It was really neat.





After the blow hole hike we took a super windy road to the airport. It was one lane most of the way so anytime we encountered another car there was a lot of backing up and squeezing by which was pretty insane. It was a cool experience but not one I wanted to repeat. My favorite parts were this cute little church that was completely lopsided and a crafty giftshop where we found a lot of our gifts to bring home. 


We were on our way to the airport to pick up Derrick's mom who was joining us for the second half of our trip. 


Smores!

 The boys decided to take surfing lessons on our last day at the resort and it was really cool to watch. They are both pretty good!





We left our resort and had a day to kill before our flight to Kauai so Derrick found us a great hike. It was probably one of the hardest hikes we did...it gained a lot of elevation in a very short amount of time but it was a fantastic workout and the views were worth it.

Reaching the top!





 
 

If you squint you can see the waterfall in the background!






 The next day we boarded a plane for week two in Kauai!

  1. All of your pictures are beautiful! So glad you thought that one hike was challenging....I definitely needed assistance and stops to catch my breath, but it was soooo worth it!
