Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass, it’s about learning how to dance in the rain.

Maui Swap Meet

Do you like this post?

We went to the Maui Swap Meet this morning, lots of people and stuff...............fruits, veggies, tropical flowers, jewelry, arts and crafts, and some junk. I bought some mango bread, fresh tomatoes, Hawaiian shaved ice, and hand crafted soaps. The tropical flowers were beautiful, and so cheap. The fruits and veggies were really great and we tasted lots of samples.

We then drove to Paia for lunch at Paia Fish House, fresh Mahi Mahi fish and chips. We sat with a young couple from the mainland and had lots of laughs. After lunch we started driving towards Hana from the back way, it was a long road with lots of curves. We got to the part where rental cars are suppose to stop, but hey it was a rental car, so we continued. What a wild ride, one lane, hanging on the edge of the cliff in one section, I understand why the rental company frowns on this path. We made it to the Pools of Oheo and then proceeded on to find the spot where Charles Lindbergh is buried in the cemetary of an old church. He loved Maui and wanted to be buried there when he died.
We made it back to civilization at sunset,
tired after a long cliff hanging drive.
We ate supper, grabbed a shower and
went to bed.
