Thanksgiving in Maui: Road to Hana

We decided last Spring to go to Maui over Thanksgiving to watch KU in the Maui Invitational basketball tournament.  Unfortunately, the Maui wild fires last summer moved the tournament to Honolulu, but we decided to still go to Maui.  Caden and Laura walked down the beach from our condo when we arrived. 


We walked right out our condo backdoor to this!

Our first day there, we decided to do the road to Hana.  We opted to circle the island completely by heading to Hana via the South side of the island. It's amazing the different topography in different parts of the island.

First stop was the Pipiwai trail to the 'Ohe'o Gulch.










Then over to Wailua Falls.


Laura and Annabelle exploring Hamoa Beach.


When we arrived in Hana, Brian had to take a work call, so Laura and the kids hiked to the Kaihalulu Red Sand beach.



Next stop was Wai'anapanapa State Park and the Black Sand Beach.





The drive back to the condo was pretty treacherous; Brian got a little car sick, but we made it.
