High surf warning was issued for the day, so the plan was to head over to
Jaws to watch some super surfers. The waves were up to 58 feet high, but
unfortunately they were "closed out" (too straight and too close), so there
was no surfing. Since so many people have no sense of the power of the
oceans, and/or common sense, the only option was to close many of the
beaches until they are deemed safe again.
We were already an hour and a half from Kapalua, and the skies were cloudy,
so we decided to continue to Hana. Luckily for me, John did the driving on
this 52 mile roundtrip journey with 617 curves and 54 bridges, many of which
are one lane.
Stopped along the way to take in the amazing views of taro fields,
spectacular cliffs, bamboo jungles, tropical pools, waterfalls and small
villages as we drove through the rain forest to "Heavenly Hana".
Made it back to civilization before dark!
