On the PLANE!
|
On our little lanai |
|
The apartment |
|
The grounds of the complex |
|
The beach on the grounds! |
|
Our beach, complete with reef for snorkeling! |
|
and tide pools |
|
a little cloudy, but who's complaining? |
|
the reef is directly behind me, the water drops off there and you can see tons of fish, including creepy neon eels! |
|
Suited up for the sun! |
Once again, blogger has wasted a perfectly good hour of my time, by eating my photos and mucking up my posts. Here is some of our Maui vacation. I am too irritated to try to fix the rest.
|
The world's largest banyan tree takes up four city blocks! |
|
It is impossible to capture the size and this tree! |
|
Lunch at the very touristy "Cheeseburger in Paradise", which offered a terrific view. |
|
SHAVE ICE! |
|
At the old Prison in Lahaina |
|
I decided that we could handle a level "4" HIKE to a waterfall, inside the rain forest. Have I mentioned we aren't really outdoorsy people? |
|
The rain forest is cold, and muddy and very RAINY, but the plants are amazing! |
|
Freyja is saying "My mother made us hike down a VERY steep cliff face!" |
|
THIS! is what I was looking for!!! Spectacular!! |
|
Check out my sexy Portuguese fisherman's shoes, that are useful for climbing on wet mossy rocks! |
|
The water is ice cold and right behind me there is a drop off, which is deep. We swam out and under the waterfall. |
|
Maxwell being very brave! |
|
Round two, this fall is much less cold, but no one will come in with me, since getting down to the falls required a super scary hike down a very steep rock wall. They were all a little cranky, but I was ecstatic. |
|
Mark about half way down, helping some other folks to the ledge. |
|
Way steeper than it looks! |
|
The next day Maxwell and I went parasailing. I hate boats and speed and heights, but he really wanted to do it... |
|
then he got a little freaked out. |
|
but it was too late, we were committed. |
|
Mark said "they had 800foot and 1,200 foot, for nearly the same price, so I got you the 1,200 foot rope!" Gee thanks! Going up! and UP, and UP! |
|
Miss F waiting for our return |
|
We lived! |
|
Freyja was very proud to have only "cut off daddy's head" in this photo! |
|
The next day we went snorkeling out in the open ocean, off this big boat, at the reef off Molokini (look it up, it's famous). Freyja got hella sea sick. |
|
Rocking her wetsuit, prior to the seasickness. |
|
Maxwell going in... 30' of water. It was incredibly cool and amazing and I can't even find the words right now to say how excellent it was. |
|
Miss F with Captain Doug |
|
A turtle, at the aquarium, just like the ones we saw on our snorkeling trip. |
|
Maxwell wiping out on his boogieboard. |
|
My view from my book. |
|
On our way out, to go home. |
|
This little guy crashed on our patio |
|
Our super silly rental car. |
