Once we landed in Maui it was clear to me that this is the Tropical Paradise that is shown on TV shows and movies. We had a few hours to kill before we could make ourselves at home at the rental property in Paia, so we decided to head around the Hana Highway. We stopped a lot and looked over the ledge and took in the warm air and shot some pictures.
We had a great guilde book, Maui Revealed, The Ultimate Guidebook, that took us through the Hana Highway by each attraction on every mile marker. Most of the road fits one car and barely two cars. We had to squeeze by or move over most of the way. One of the stops that were in the guide book said to stop at Julie's Best Banana Bread. I also picked up her homemade Coconut Candy and Taro Chips. They were so good! I'm glad you can order her items online because we are craving the bread. We stopped at a few waterfalls and even a spot to snorkel before we headed home for the night.
We stayed in the beautiful Cherry Cottage in Paia. For some reason we didn't take any pictures of this place, but take our word for it, it was beautiful. Two bedrooms and a sleeper sofa, it was perfect for our family of 4. On our way there from the Hana Highway and thanks to a few of my iPhone Apps I was able to find a local pizza place, place and order for a large pizza that we picked up on the way to our rental.
