MAHALO!!!!!!
Haleakala - Hawaii |
Accdg to Wiki -The name Haleakalā is Hawaiian for "house of the sun." According to a local legend, the semigod Maui imprisoned the sun here in order to lengthen the day.
P.S.- Arrived at Maui at 9pm then sleep for 5 hrs wake up 2 am drove and arrived at Haleakala at 5:30 am to see the sunrise. We both didnt bother the jetlag, the time difference, and plus the winding road if we at our left its bangin and onto the right its bundok. Not to mention its 10 C LOL

Probably the highight part of our trip. Why? Because....
Accdg to Wiki: The Hāna Highway is a 64.4-mile (103.6 km) long stretch of Hawaii Routes 36 and 360 Although Hāna is only about 52 miles (84 km) from Kahului, it takes about 2.5 hours to drive when no stops are made as the highway isVERY WINDING and NARROW and PASSES over 59 BRIDGES, 46 of which are only ONE LANE WIDE. There are approximately 620 curves along Route 360 from just east of Kahului to Hāna, virtually all of it through lush, tropical rainforest.
P.S 14 hr day trip. unpaved road, heat, and dirty as a result of the trip we get this amazing Godly created view. Plus, we take risk and decided to take the back side drive which is not advisable by many because of the falls rocks from the mountain and flash floods may occur. Well we're back in Canada and alive LOL.
Accdg to Wiki (again): A luau (Hawaiian: lūʻau) is a traditional Hawaiian party or feast that is usually accompanied by entertainment. It may feature food such as poi, kalua pig, poke, lomi salmon, opihi, haupia and beer, and entertainment such as traditional Hawaiian music and hula. Among people from Hawaiʻi, the concepts of "luau" and "party" are often blended, resulting in graduation luau, wedding luau and birthday luau.
P.S the only food we liked during Luau were poke, Mai Thai, and banana bread (the bomb)
Part of our Hawaiian experience.
P.S>. We miss Hawaii :(
