Maui 2009: Part 1
Posted on May 13th, 2009 1 commentAloha from Maui… yes, I’m here again, for a little working vacation. I’ve got three nights here, then three more in Kauai. I brought along a camera to review, plus three underwater cameras to take snorkeling with me.
Below are photos from Day 1, which are mostly of my drive through Upcountry Maui, which is a fun road, if not a little scary! I threw in some beach photos for good measure, though I’ll lots more of those in the week ahead.
-
- Looking down the slopes of Haleakala toward Wailea, with West Maui in the distance
-
- Mailboxes along the Kula Highway in Upcountry Maui
-
- Molokini from a long distance
-
- This narrow road was challenging and sometimes scary
-
- Biggest dip I’ve ever seen. Plenty of evidence of bottomed-out cars below.
-
- It passed through lava flows
-
- Despite being on the large side, the FX35 is still pretty fun to drive
-
- End of the road, for rental cars at least
-
- Panoramic view from the end of the road
-
- Lots of wind and waves on this side of the island
-
- Nice flowers at Tedechi Winery
-
- Yes, I took this one last year
-
- My home for three nights, the Westin Kaanapali Ocean Resort Villas
-
- Panoramic view of what passes for an ocean view these days
-
- Looking north near the beach
-
- And here’s the fantastic beach in front of the resort
-
- I think this one’s from last year too
-
- Love the hibiscus
-
- First of many Mai Tais, I’m sure
-
- Cliff diver
-
- jumps off
-
- of Black Rock
Those last two photos are panoramas, by the way. All of these were taken with the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX1.
