The Iao valley… part 1…

There is a valley on Maui that is worth checking out…

I mean, obviously there are lots of sights on Maui that are worth seeing, but this little valley, just a few miles from the airport, is something that you just shouldn’t miss. We almost missed it. We figured we had seen enough greenery and scenery on our second honeymoon. But as I said, it was right on the way to the airport, so we decided we might as well.

I wasn’t expecting much…

As we drove the monster-vomit-green convertible Mustang into the valley, it didn’t seem that impressive…

It was nice, but it wasn’t as lush as the jungles on the other side of the island…

But the further in we got, the better it got…

It was, in fact, stunning…

The mountains just loom above you…

The most boring views in the valley are as good as the best views you can find in most places…

So if… when… you go to Maui, check it out…

Yes, it is a little touristy…

But the small mountain called ‘The Needle’ is a sight to behold…

    Look up, up, way up! Here comes Rusty! Those mountains look like Friendly Giants. Oh, by the way, my comment on a previous post about monkeys in Maui was to suggest it would make a good children’s book.
