Finally, Maui post #2 !

The first sunset!  Wow.
 We didn't have time after settling in & eating dinner to make it down to the beach for the sunset but even through the palm trees it was amazing. The colors, the silhouettes of the trees, ahhhh so beautiful!! 




The next day, to the beach!


 The water was warm and it was there, out in the water that I really felt the distance of home, of being out in the middle of the ocean on a small island. I felt so small. Moments like that are necessary to be humble and thoughtful. Something I wish I would have done is that I would have sat down and wrote how I was feeling in the moment, the sun, the air, the sounds.... 


When I was in Montana, one night we were driving late to our next campground I sat next to the window and started writing my thoughts. I'm glad I can look back on the photos and go back to that note, it brings me right back to the moment.





The waves were so much different that here in WA so I wasn't very prepared, see picture below. Haha!!







The photo on the wall behind me says "Waliea Hawaii-
Memories you'll treasure for the rest of your life"
Truth.





Driving to Lahaina was beautiful!



 & we ate at Bubba Gump Shrimp. It was a really fun spot for the group!
