Travel Highlights--part two




















Friday evening Lyle and Lorna McClelland and Ben and Dorothy Bergen and we rented a minivan. We drove to Lahaina--the sunset picture in top left hand corner.


Saturday morning we drove the fifty mile trip (three hours) to Hana. It is an amazing trip. Very beautiful. The road is narrow and has many hairpin turns. Views are breathtaking. The second picture is the Kenae peninsula.
We all loved an amazing hike that began five miles after Hana. It is always a great adventure to begin a hike. Anticipation of what one might encounter or discover is what makes it so interesting. The fragrance of guava provided wonderful ambiance.


After hiking for one mile we entered the bamboo forest. What fun! When the wind was blowing it was like listening to percussion instruments in an orchestra beating out some new song. There was a well built wood walkway through much of the bamboo part of the forest. At the end of the trail was a beautiful waterfall. (top right) Mikahiku falls.

Happy trails!
