Maui

When my daughter married her second husband, his parents, my wife and I were invited along on their honeymoon on Maui. It was a great fun trip. The Hawaiian Islands are a wonderful place to take a vacation. One of the best things about our stay in Maui was the hotel. The lobby was partially outdoors. Across from the front desk was a pond with goldfish and a waterfall.

There is a path that winds its way between the five swimming pools and lovely gardens. This picture was taken on the path.

Here is the view from our room.

The mountains in the picture are volcanic. Next are some scenes driving up them. First is the astronomical observatory. The second is the caldera of the volcano.

And of course there is the Pacific Ocean. One of the fun things to do is to take a ride on a catamaran.

Another is to watch the breakers hit the rocks.

A couple of local men caught an octopus.

And I'll end this with a beautiful sunset.
