Maui 2010 Day 3

On our third day, we drove up north a ways and stopped in Lahaina, the oldest town on the west side of Maui. The Harbour is beautiful and peaceful.

In Lahaina, is the famous Banyan tree.  It takes  up the whole block.  These trees grow roots from their branches and then it makes additional trees.  It's pretty amazing.  We were here on a Sunday, so there was a market going on underneath it all, which kind of took away from its glory.  Behind the lady in the middle is the original trunk of the tree.  Everything else going down to the ground are roots and babies. Kind of creepy looking, but very cool!

We have found that the sunsets are always so beautiful in Lahaina.  Although, they are tend to be gorgeous wherever you are on Maui!
