Our trip to Maui
Posted in The Farm Blog on 03/20/2009 09:03 pm by AdministratorSteve and I returned from our trip to Maui yesterday. Steve’s son Randy got married at the Kula Botanical Gardens. While there, we did a trail ride up into t
he mountains, and down to the beach. We drove the “Road to Hana” and hiked up the Pipwai trail to Makahiku Fall, a waterfall with a 200 foot drop. The hike took us through a fabulous bamboo forest. Next we went whale watching. march is breeding season for the Humpback whales. They come to Hawaii every to have their babies and to make more! I can’t tell you how amazing it is to see them jump, wave their fins and do tail splashes. WOW!
We did spend a little time on the beach. However the waves waves were really huge with a really strong undercurrent.
On Tuesday morning, we drove up to the volcano crater, Haleakala. It was only 45 degrees and the wind almost blew us away. That evening we went to the Old Lahaina Luau. I didn’t know hips could move that much!
We also visited the Surfing Goat Dairy, an agri-tourism venture in Mau. They sell goat cheese and give farm tours.
Of course, I had to visit the only yarn shop on Maui, and bought 2 skeins of yarn.
Today, we are trying to recover from jet lag.
