MY FAMILY VISITED THE HANA ROAD THAT IS 52 MILES FROM KAHLUA. HERE WE RENTED A B AND B. IT IS A WINDING LONG ROAD TO HANA ROAD WHICH TAKES 2 1/2 HOURS TO DRIVE WITH OVER 60 BRIDGES. THEY HAVE A NUMBER OF TOURISTS AND IT IS A BEAUTIFUL CURVING ROAD WITH MANY WATERFALLS AND ROADSIDE VENDORS. IT IS IN A TROPICAL JUNGLE. THIS ROAD IS ON THE NATIONAL REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES.SINCE 2001. IT HAS MANY MOSQUITOES AND SOME PLACES HAD REPELLENT! WE WENT TO THE SEVEN SACRED POOLS AREA AND IT WAS A COLD OCEAN THERE WITHIN THE WITHIN HALEAKALA NATIONAL PARK. THERE IS NO CELL PHONE TRAFFIC HERE.MY MOM ENJOYED THIS PLACE AND WE HAD A B ABD B WHERE WE COULD COOK SOME MEALS AND AND MAKE LUNCHES FOR GOING OUT ON THE TRAIL. OUR ONE RENTAL BED HAD GECKOS, VERY TIMID LITTLE LIZARD LIKE SALAMANDERS THAT HAVE CUPS TO CLIMB THE WALLS.WE TOOK MANY PHOTOS ALSO HERE. THE HISTORIC FOLKS CAUGHT FISH WITH A SPEAR.
ON THIS SAME TRIP WE SPENT TIME IN IN LAHAINA WHERE WE RENTED A B AND B. AT THIS HOME WE HAD AN OVERLOOKING VIEW OF THE BEACH. WE SAW LARGE HUMPBACKED WHALES AROUND. THEY WERE THE SIZE OF YACHTS. THIS TOWN HAS CH SUGAR, LAHAINA BEACHES. IT HAS MANY HOUSES AND WATCHED THEM MAKE THEIR CRAFTS. THEY HAVE MANY TOURING SHIPS. PREVIOUSLY IT WAS THE CAPITAL CITY. LOOKED AT SOME OF THE MUSEUMS. IN HISTORIC TIMES THERE WERE MANY WHALE SHIPS. TODAY IT IS BANNED. WE WERE THERE IN FEBRUARY WHEN THERE WERE SO MANY HUMPBACKED WHALES FLIPPING OUT OF THE WATER. AT OLD LAHAINA YOU CAN WATCH SOME NEW AND OLD HULA DANCES.
