on sunday we decided to go for a drive around the west side of maui. i loved that you could see so many different climates and scenery in an afternoon drive. we drove past the dry side of the island first, then we started into the wetter side.. we went for a walk at a place called mushroom rock. it is a little walk from the road, but the view was amazing. we saw a whale and quite a few sea turtles right close to the shore.
all of us watching the sea turtles

the drive home was about 15 miles of one way roads and bridges. it was one of the most beautiful drives I have ever been on. this is a picture of some of the road and a tiny hawaiin village.
our train of rental cars, this picture is of the road after it has widened up for a while. we didn’t stop and get many pictures, because we wanted to hurry and try not to run into any cars coming the other way. in a lot of places, you could only fit one car, so if you ran into another car, someone had to back up. we only ran into a few cars, and there was always a pull-out close by.
the only damper on our day is that poor carson was pretty sick. we drugged him up for the walk, but once we were driving home he started feeling lousy again. luckily he fell asleep for most of the drive.
