Aloha from MauiToday was a travel day again. We had an early flight from Hilo, Hawaii to Kahului, Maui. We were picked up at the airport in Kahului and taken on a tour. Our first stop was Iao Valley State Park. This is a beautiful tropical gorge between two volcanos. We then went to LaHaina. This is a neat town, with lots of shops and restaurants. The bus lets you out right in front of Hilo Hattie's. A popular tourist trap. You almost have to go through the store to get out the other side to get to town. We made is through relatively unscathed. We had lunch on the upper deck of Cheeseburger in Paradise. Small world, our waitress was from Rochester, MI. After lunch, we had a liesurely walk through town. Had to stop for some ice cream. Our new friend Nolan is particularly fond of ice cream. The town was sponsoring an art fair this weekend, under a banyan tree. This particular tree is the second largest Banyan tree in the world. After the afternoon in LaHaina, we left for our hotel, The Maui Beach Hotel. We had dinner at the Hideaway overlooking the harbor in Kahului.
