Our group went to the Iao Valley and started with a short hike to the Iao Needle. There I had a vocabulary lesson that brought on a joke that lasted the whole trip. Needless to say we traveled with a fun group of people.
Kelly was one of the guys on our trip. He and his wife Eileen were so much fun and a great pair to play jokes on throughout the trip!
Bob was our camera friend during the trip. A very nice guy starting over after the loss of his wife a few months ago. He also made me feel like Santa was watching over during the whole trip.
There were beautiful gardens below the needle that we had a chance to walk through and enjoy.
We found our first banana tree, followed by many others throughout the trip.
The Banyan Trees were amazing and made for great pictures.
After the hike we went to a rope swing where some of our group jumped in. It was a little too high for me. We also went to the beach to snorkel. I was fine with sitting on the beach, but Mandy and and guy in our group were patient with my very stubborn nature and got me in to snorkel for the very first time. They were both very right that it was well worth it and I enjoyed doing it then as well as later in the trip. Thanks for being patient with me Mandy and Bruce and for pushing me out of a comfort zone!

It looks like such a fun trip. I hear Maui is the place to go for hiking. Can't wait to see more pictures!
