Okay, I admit it… I took a lot of pictures of the jungle on the road to Hana on Maui…
Driving that car on that road was awesome. Yes, it rained off and on, but you can’t really have a jungle without rain…
And the rain does help keep the waterfalls flowing…
The very first of the famous waterfalls of the Hana road that we found were these delightful little set of double falls…
And it didn’t take me long to figure out that even in a jungle, there are a lot of different kinds of jungle…
There are roots and vines growing down over little caves, and places where the foliage was just so think you couldn’t have crawled through it…
And the bamboo… man, there was a lot of bamboo of so many types. There were hills covered in bamboo, and there was crazy big patches of this really fat kind of bamboo…
Is that a monkey? Oh… wait… sorry… that’s me in that bamboo. Of course, there was the ocean too…
Ocean and jungle are a cool combination. You can see the Hana road cut into the hillside over there. But even the ocean like the jungle itself, had many moods. When the sun was shining, the ocean was a spectacular blue like you would expect from an ocean around a tropical island. But when the clouds came over, it took on a slightly more sinister appearance…
That looks a little like Northern California. I guess it doesn’t really look all that sinister in that shot, but we will get back to that. The point here is that if you ever go to Maui, get yourself a crazy-colored Mustang convertible and drive this road…
You don’t even have to get out of the car to see some awesome views…
Pouring My Art Out 
OH! This is totally worth getting frizzy hair for!
It really is…
Wow, wow, wow. That is some amazing turf. And the monkey peeking out of the bamboo looks like a transplanted species…Ha!
we need to stop letting those insidious, pesky, parasitical and damaging species creep anywhere they want to… hey… wait a minute…
The word “lush” comes to mind …
hey… I gave up drinking… oh… wait… I see what you mean…
That car pretty much blends in with all the foliage. It’s like a camo car.
exactly… and yet easy to find in parking lots full of other rented Mustangs.
Love the car, love the colours… love everything about it. I gots to visit that place someday.
when are we leaving?
Charter?
or we could build a raft and start paddling
A piece of heaven 🙂
a big piece… with whip cream
Yummeh whip cream!
oh yeah
Beautiful!
whee
How very cool! I really think I need to go to Maui….
take me with you… I will show you all the best spots
Okay, That makes four for the PMAO Maui charter.
we are going to need a bigger boat…
You can’t possibly know all the best spots yet! you weren’t there long enough. I’m in! Can we all get an extended vacation? I want to stay as long as I want, no time limits. Then we will also have to check out the other islands too you know..
The island is only like 42 miles long… we covered every road except a few that were paved… and we had locals showing us around… we saw the hell out of that island.
Those are stunning
it was awesome
Umm… do I need to remind you that you are, in fact, a monkey?
oh… right
