The last couple of times we have skipped going on the road to Hana. It is only about 60 miles from our hotel but has I think 251 hairpin turns and is often a one lane road. It's beautiful but can leave a person car sick. Since we had a mustang convertible we had to go on the drive. We stopped and grabbed a couple of sandwiches and headed off. The weather was perfect and with the top down you see so much more, plus you get to smell and it smelled wonderful.
The hike is two miles to the top fall and there we ate our lunch.
Here we are at the bottom two falls. The water was so cold that I got in and right back out. Steve was more adventurous and swam over to the fall. There were some teenagers there that we talked into jumping off the top fall. Been there and done that so I felt no pressure and enjoyed watching everyone else jump.
There is a road that goes around the island but years ago they wouldn't allow you to take your rental car around. We didn't see any signs telling us not to go that way so we did. There were a couple of rough spots but when we saw a tour bus go that way we knew we were safe. That big white building down there is our hotel. Unfortunately there is not a road that connects down there so you have to drive another 20 miles around to get to it. We had a great day and wanted some mahi for dinner. The cute fast food place that we always went to it out of business so we drove down Kehei road looking for a place to eat. I saw a bar and grill and told Steve to pull over. He was hesitant but smart enough to do it. Me and three of my children get a little ornery when we are hungry. Luckily we could go in dressed in our swimsuits and it was the best meal we have eaten.
This little old lady came by our table selling leis. She was dressed so cute that we had to get a picture.
