The Nees' trip - the road to hana

I know its been a few days, we've been busy still getting back into the swing of things....

Here are the pictures from our road trip to Hana - the road to hana is a road trip on really small roads with a lot of turns that takes you around most of the island... it was amazing!!

Jeni,
Thanks for letting us borrow the maui revealed book, it was the greatest thing to have on the trip!!

We started out a 7:30 AM and we passed the serious surfers at the beginning of the trip
There were lots of local fruit stands all along the way... we would be driving in the middle of no where and then all of sudden in the middle of the woods would be a fruit stand
the trip was full of lush green trees and plants, it was so beautiful....
The views of the ocean were amazing, and we drove right a long it all day long!
We saw a lot of really neat waterfalls...
This was a little pool and waterfall that we walked to....
more waterfalls...
More views...
The road was so close to the edge....
Can you see the road cut into the side of the mountain??

little town that we drove through on the drive
The black sand beach....
the water was sooo blue!!
more black sand beach
Here is the mongoose that jason spent a lot of time trying to get a picture of.... you have to look really close by the tire under the car...
Jason's body surfing
Here he goes


The seven sacred pools... this was the best part of the trip.... these are the fresh water pools that lead right to the ocean... it was so surreal

We were able to swim in the pools... so neat!!!


The road got really bad as we headed around the last part of the trip... but it was still beautiful




The trip to hana was one of our favorite things we did while we were in Maui.....


Stay tuned for our other fun activities
