KAHULUI, MAUI, HAWAII

Four of us ( Bob, Sarah, Sherrie & I ) rented a car today to explore Maui quickly, as we only have seven hours in this port of Kahului. It would be to rushed to do the iconic Road to Hana and all of us but Sarah has done it already. Instead we set out to see 'IOA Valley, Twin Falls and Pa'ia town, a cute historical plantation town. Above is the 'Ian Needle,

Next we were off to see the Twin falls - which are not side by side, but rather up stream from each other. It was a nice enough walk and stretch of the legs, but the heights of the falls are far from impressive.

Our final stop, was the town of Pa'ia that had some great local artist and dress shops, bars, ice cream vendors and our favorite a wood fired pizza oven at the Flatbread Company. We were hungry, it smelled amazing and I personally have not had pizza in nine months since the trip started. So yummy - I had homemade fennel sausage & mushrooms on 1/2 and feta and veggies on the other half.

These were very tasty. The unsweeted green tea below - not so much! Imagine tree bark boiled with a used dull tea bag! I did offer a taste to my friends right after these photos, No takers! They can't all be winners!
