John & Katie's Big Adventure

Hawaiian Vacation Cruise - Days 8 and 9     

MAUI

 Day 8


Land - Ho!  Thursday, September 11th

Lahaina is a shallow water port so we had to be tendered ashore



The ship uses several of their life boats for the tendering


Of course we had to make a quick stop at their library!!

Beautiful Scenery

another beach view with Rhapsody in the background

Our first day in Maui was mostly shopping but we also had a "Trilogy Catamaran Sunset Sail"




Anyone who has been to Lahina knows of this tree.  It is the second largest banyan in the world.

On Friday we went on the "Iao Valley * Maui Tropical Plantation" tour

Which included a cocoanut husking demonstration


and a view of the Iao Needle (behind us)

And a great view.  Our bus can be seen below

On the way back to Lahina Rhapsody is visible

Our favorite cafe was across from the dock.  The giant banyan is on the right.  Katie LOVED their spring rolls!
