Maui vacation

Welcome to Maui!!



Pictures are worth a 1,000 words so here you go.



Image A friend of my brother's let him use thier time share for a week and we were lucky he invited us to come. Who could say no to MAUI? So Jeff, Taison, Makai and I went for the week and my friend Emberly came for a couple days then island hoped to Oahu for a couple days then came back. We all had a lot of fun.

I LOVE my husband. I think he's half monkey....

If you can read the sign it says "THIS IS IT" This is the only store for miles and miles so stock up cause you wont get another chance.

ImageDoesn't really look like a store huh?ImageImageImage
These trees are so big its crazy.

Starting the hikes. Even though Makai would have loved to walk the whole way, this didn't last long. We started the hikes kinda late in the day so we were rushing to get to see it all.

The Seven sacred pools



This was the dry season so the water wasn't flowing like normal, but it was still really cool to see. We really want to go back and see it when its not the dry season.


Waimoku Falls

Makai was impressed. He kept
looking up and all around.

Taison then Jeff
standing under the
falls. So amazing we'd go
back just for this!

Emberly then Jeff standing in a little cave
by the falls. Again this is the dry season or else the falls would have been even more amazing if that's even possible.



Tell me this doesn't look like a body?..... It was just laying off to the side of the trail. Anyways no worries it was just a tarp rolled up. The boys checked it out. Then made fun of us for evening thinking it could be a body. Image

Image Throwing rocks..... He could have done this all day.

ImageOn the way into the Lava Tube. It was to dark inside for any pictures.



We each had to have our own flashlight to even see where to walk.
