The ocean was inches away from our balcony for 200$/ day (would recommend anyone to stay in this place). I used ur video as a guide for the whole trip and it didn't disappoint. I even followed the same order. We also went to the volcano and biked down. It was a great experience. Thank you for making our honeymoon remarkable.

We did some of these things in 2017 too. We had a hotel in Kaanapali, we did the Road to Hana (picked up fresh coconuts on the way there) and went up the Pipiwai trail, past the Banyon tree and through the atmospheric bamboo forest (which is breathtaking) to the Waimoku waterfall. Stopped twice on the road at the blowhole and at the Keanae lookout point. We were also on Haleakala and visited the impressive crater, unfortunately not at sunrise. We saw too late that you had to make a reservation there, but unfortunately it was fully booked. Were up there late morning. It was still an incredible sight. More or less at the foot of the mountain we visited the Ocean Vokda Farm. We visited Lahaina when it still existed. So sad that the beautiful place just disappeared, it was one of the coolest days ever. Went there in the great Coolcat Cafe and enjoyed delicious burgers and shakes. We then drove from there to Lanai for one day and visited the Cat Sanctuary. We were then also Iao Needle and a few more places. Maui has so much to offer that 2 weeks were unfortunately far too little. Thanks for upoad and for great memories🤙

And maaaaan, Lahaina is so sad, I hope it's a unifying thing for the islands to come together and support the island, it's terrible to think about what that must have been like. So many people perished, so quickly. Terrible. But thankful we got to experience Lahaina in it's former glory.

Even if you don't agree with his political views and opinions, you would be moved by his dedication and great personalities!

Consiracy theories aren't helpful here. And we aren't talking about it becuase voter suppression and blah blah trump blah.
