Maui County

We arrived in Maui early this morning after five days at sea. The weather has cooperated and the seas have been smooth, though they did close the outside decks for a day and a half. Called Dad and had a brief chat.
We were ready for breakfast by 6:40 as the clocks were set back again last night.
We were off the ship shortly after 7 and took a cab to the airport to pick up our rental car. On our way by 8:30 in the Toad to Hana. It is a small, well-paved road that is at times only one lane over very narrow bridges. The views of the ocean, waterfalls and flora are outstanding. Stopped to watch surfers at a beach and further on a large pod of dolphins playing in the sea. Must have been at least 20 of them. Got to Hanna around noon and had lunch at Hilo’s food truck. Vic chose grilled Mahi mahi. Good flavour. Unfortunately I had a sinus headache and experienced motion sickness for the first time in my life which made the winding road challenging to endure. Stopped to watch people jumping from the top of a waterfall into a pool of water.
Returned to Kahului by 3pm and topped up the gas and returned the car to the airport.
I ended up spending the rest of the day and evening in bed.Read more
