Magnificent Maui

The internet hasn’t been cooperating so I haven sent out the blog for several days.  On Friday, we woke up to the breathtaking landscapes of Maui.  So much different then the island is Oahu, it has a rugged landscape and mountains with not a single high rise in sight.

After breakfast, Bruce and I made our way to the tender to go ashore.  Linda and Stan were feeling a little under the weather so they planned to head out a little later.  The port town was quaint.  It reminded us of any beach town in the US or Caribbean.  There was a Central Park where a huge banyan tree canopied the entire area.  It was quite amazing.  We went for a swim on a beach nearby.  The water was warm and it felt marvelous.

I would have loved to see more of Maui but we really had limited time.  The rainforest was over an hour away, too far with the time we had left.  We took the tender back to the ship and the seas were getting quite rough.  Unfortunately on the tender Bruce’s shoulder was reinjured.  He had X-rays taken yesterday and it looks broken again.

The sunset was lovely
