The hubby and I took a drive to the other side of the island to check out the blow hole and the heart shaped hole (it is not man made)

Rather it’s a forceful explosion of seawater that erupts on a regular basis—often as frequently as every few minutes when the surf and wind are both up. Set on the island’s northwestern coast, Nakalele Blowhole is a natural geyser where seawater trapped in an underwater lava tube is searching for a way to escape.
Since it can’t go back the way it came in—there’s too much pressure from the waves—the only outlet is a tire-sized hole in the jagged, jet-black lava rock, where a column of water is powerfully jettisoned up to 100 feet in the air
When you reach the bottom of the scree slope trail and the blowhole is off to your left, turn around and look behind you—placing the blowhole at your back. Here you’ll see a heart shaped hole that’s formed in the middle of the rocks, and frames a coastal, tropical scene of mountains, seashore, and waves. The hole in the rock is now an Instagram darling—more popular than even the blowhole—though it can never compete with the time-stopping fury that Nakalele can bring; a thunderous, vertical, rainbow-clad marvel, with a view stretching out to the Molokaʻi cliffs, the blue Pacific, and beyond.

Haleakala Crater looms 10,023 feet above the Pacific Ocean, taking up three-quarters of Maui’s 727 square miles. Haleakala sunrise inspire 1.5 million visitors annually. Its ascent takes trekkers through 6 of the world’s 14 climate zones, while its depression was deemed the quietest place on the planet by acoustic experts, who found that its ambient sound levels were “near the very threshold of human hearing.” The entirety of the park, which comprises 33,265 acres, holds more endangered species than any other U.S. National Park. Its summit is considered one of the leading destinations in the world for observing and monitoring astronomical wonders. Designated “the sublimest spectacle” Mark Twain had ever seen—and a place of “incomparable grandeur” by The Call of the Wild’s Jack London—Haleakalā might not be one of the world’s seven wonders but it ought to be: Maui’s giant, majestic shield volcano is nothing short of astonishing.

So very sad… glad we got to see the tree

Lahaina Town, A historic cimmunity that was the capital of the kingdom of Hawaii in the 1800's; Now it attracts more than 2 million people each year!!
