Road to Hana

I left Kihei Thursday afternoon and took the Road to Hana. I drove straight to the Seven Pools, hiked, camped, and drove back on Friday, the local away. I was so glad that I did the trip in two days; I was able to stop as often as I wanted on the way back and no one was in front or behind me!! I really enjoyed the hike near the seven pools hiking to the falls and walking through the bamboo forest. I loved doing all the hikes and I took awesome pictures.

When I got back I went to the beach then to Lahaina. That night I went with my Samoan friend to the Fijians house ukelela playing. It was awesome hearing them sing and play, even though I fell asleep.

Maui Scuba Diving

I went scuba diving this morning. I swam with the turtles and feed the fish pineapple. I also have 2 sea urchin shells that I can make a night light with.....hopefully it works out. I'm going on the Road to Hana, camping and coming back tomorrow. It should be a lot of fun with lots of hikes and waterfalls!!

My vacation has been so awesome!!

Early Early Morning

I woke up at 2am to go see the sunrise at 10,000 feet on top of Mt Haleakala Volcanic Crater. I then rode a back down for 18 miles. It was a blast riding through sparse towns. Then I hiked to Twin Falls and did the rope swing. I had a hard time reaching high enough on the rope to swing under the water fall but a guy helped me by holding the rope and I did it!! It was a lot of fun.

I think cruised to the other side of the island and snorkeled at Black Rock and walked around Whaler Village. I love swimming in the warm ocean water!!

Happy Birthday Lori and Grandma!!

First Day

I arrived in Maui, my rental car was upgraded to a convertible for free!! I went paddling with the Lahiana Canoe Club and loved it; I'm definitely can improve!! We then to watch the Westin Laua Show and friend dances in the show ans we were able to see it from the sidelines!! Then grabbed dinner at the Aloha Mixed Plate and headed home to crash.

New Trail, New Fun

Free time = Mountain Biking time

I've been riding the the MBU (Mountain Bike Unit) for the past year and I love it. I've been able to ride new places and meet new people. Today I rode a challenging trail called the Backbone and it was a blast. I love the green brush and trees in the middle of summer.

Two Dodger Games in Two Nights

Thanks Jared and Eva, first night lost, second night won

I live in the ghetto

I normally like where I live but every once in a while I'm reminded that I live in "The Valley". This is what I saw this morning as I was leaving my house.


I felt really bad for the guy until later in the day; I was driving with my friend Michelle and I pointed it out to her and he flipped us off.....oh well, he deserves it!!
