The Road to Hana
By Lee | 
3 Comments » We landed at Kahului Airport on the island of Maui. We rented a car and were set to drive the famous ‘Road to Hana’. The highway on the north side of the island is one of the most scenic coastal drives anywhere in the world. It rivals the drive from Cape Town to the Cape of Good Hope and buries the mountainous drives in the south of France. We had arrived early in the morning from Kaui’i and were set to tackle the drive all the way to Hana on the far east of the island and then back to where we were staying in Kaanapali on the far west just south of Kapalua in one day.

Easter Island is in the middle of the South Pacific Ocean, 3000 miles from anywhere resembling solid land and you will never want to go back once you have experienced this wonderous island.

As you can see the vivid sunsets were pretty amazing. After chilling in the lap of luxury for a few days and several months of hostel life we shot off to the backpacker capital of the South Pacific, Beachcomber Island. (more…)
