Hawaii - Highlights
In January 2009, we made another pilgrimage to the Island of Maui, Hawaii. We've been there many times and know the island and its waters very well. With the economy being what it is, the Island was relatively calm. You could park on the street in Lahaina. Shops were uncrowded. There were great "deals" on everything. You could walk into most restaurants without reservations and eat without delay. Traffic was far less than we have become accustomed to. At least for us, there was a bright side to the down economy.
While there we spent about half our days diving. The surf was up ... 10 to 20 foot waves on the North Shore ... so we had a chance to watch surfers, and more excitingly, windsurfers at the top of their game. We drove to Hana (first time, actually) and back to the summit of Haleakala. The weather was good. It was a relaxing vacation, one we'll remember for quite some time.
This gallery has the highlights. There are separate galleries for diving, surfing, windsurfing and so on. Check 'em out. I'm pretty happy with the photos.
These photos were taken in January 2009 mostly with a Nikon D3.
