The second half of the road to Hana is even more exiting than the first.  As you approach the town of Wailua, you will pass a few fruit stands offering homemade goodies and fruit. If you are hungry for a snack, this is the place to stop.

The Road to Hana - The First Half - Oct 31, 2007 - 10:04:50 PM
Hana is a sleepy little town located in Maui on the backside of Haleakala.  Hana is a fairly quiet town with only one or two hotels.  It has a small public beach that when compared to some of the other beaches on Maui seem less than impressive.  And what sleepy town would be complete without a horse ranch.  Hana is definitely not lacking in charm.

The Hawaiian Island of Ni'ihau - Oct 31, 2007 - 10:01:18 PM
Not all of the Hawaiian Islands have been as westernized as equally as others.  Most people would say that Oahu is by far the most commercialized of the islands and that Molokai is the least.  They are only partly right. The little known island of Ni'ihau is actually the least modernized and the least populated of the islands.
