Maui-Day 5, Lahaina/North Coast




Today,we did some exploring on the NW Coast. We found a better beach to swim down the road in Kaanapali. The water was so nice and warm. Unbelievable, when you're used to your toes getting numb and falling off in the cold Oregon water!

We also went to the historic town of Lahaina where the world's largest Banyan Tree is. The tree grows humungous roots from every huge branch and then they go straight down into the ground looking like it's a different tree. But it's all one tree. It takes up the whole block!




After coming back to the condo to eat lunch, get all the salt water off of us and relax for a couple of hours, we did some more exploring. This time, we went North. We found a great open air restaurant, The Sea House, right on Napili Bay. Great food and a great view of the bay!



I have to tell you a funny story. Lamar called the restaurant ahead of time to get directions just in case we decided to stop. On the piece of paper, he wrote, turn left at P House Street. When I asked him about it, he said that the person was foreign and it was hard to understand him. When we stopped at this intersection, we both started cracking up because we realized that this was the street we needed. P House Street ended up being Napilihau Street. :-)
