There are certain traditions that you must observe when visiting Maui. One is a visit to the banyan tree in Lahaina for family photos. So we spent a fun evening in Lahaina admiring ourselves with cameras.
Ignoring the signs about not climbing on the banyan, Zach and Austin hopped right up for a picture.
It was a little rainy while we were there so we saw some spectacular rainbows.
We found another tree that didn't have signs about climbing. That made everybody happy.
And no trip to Maui would complete without whale watching. It was high season for whales, so we saw spouts and splashes all the time. Past experience tells me that taking a picture of a whale is usually not successful, but taking a picture of people watching whales is another story.
Another traditions is eating a traditional Hawaiian meal. After our very first "authentic" meal many years ago we are a little more selective so we opted for a traditional plate lunch with macaroni salad and rice instead of lomo lomi and poi.
With tropical drinks of course.
I remember a time when no trip to Maui could be made without windsurfing - lots and lots of attempts at windsurfing.
