Travels - Mar in Maui

Pictures - as promised

Road Trip to the West End

This is the road trip where they were told "don't go on that road", but they got lost and ended up on that road anyway. It was a rough road, but these are Montana girls, nothing scares them. From the West End you can look across a beautiful blue ocean and see the neighboring island of Molokai in the distance.
The West End is drier and less tropical. The shore line is more rugged.
They saw a lot of places where there were rocks piled on top of each other. They asked what it was for, expecting an answer like "it is to ward off evil demon spirits during the Hawaiian spring rituals", but no - the answer they got was "I don't know". It may remain a mystery forever.
They stopped at a little village - Old Kahakuloa Village - where they bought banana bread made from local bananas.
