Way back in January, I won a weeks stay in Maui. We finally were able to go a couple weeks ago. My mom, and Steve's family juggled our kids for the week. So we were able to go just the two of us. I put the whole album on facebook with explanations of each picture, but here are a few of my favorites.
Maui is as green as you can imaginewith many natural wonders.
We took a ton of hikes, here is one that led down to this blowhole. The ocean was angry this day.
We took a scenic/adventurous road trip to Hana.
with many waterfalls 
Just "Drinkin it in"
Fresh water caves
Here is a part of the Seven Sacred Pools, where a fall leads to a pool and then another fall into a pool etc. until it went into the ocean. We were able to swim in these pools. I don't think I ever imagined being able to do this.
Loved the 3 bold colors here. Black, Green and Blue!
After snorkeling we had worked up an appetite and found a coconut, so Steve busted it open with a rock. I was quite impressed. I think I'd be okay stranded on an island with him.
Most of the time we were out body surfing or snorkeling, so only a few times was I able to bust out a book. I was able to read 2 books with all the travel time. "The Brothers" and "The Peacegiver"- both awesome books fyi
Would you ever get tired of looking at this scene?
One of the last days we went on a snorkeling excursion to two sites, Molikini, and Lanai

We had an underwater camera, and I was so glad that we could take these pictures. The fish were in every color, and luckily there weren't any sharks that we could see. :)
Our last night
Last sunset
ooooh steamy :) 
And they lived happily ever after...until they came back to reality. :) J/k reality is not bad, it's just not Hawaii.
