Vacation

 It was wonderful to have vacation. Tim, finally got to see our newly purchased condo in Honokowai, West Maui, Hawai'i. Our condo is next door to my sister, who lives here all year.
 We needed to do some painting and decorating, but, that did not stop us from enjoying the beach, pool and gorgeous weather.

 The first pic is the condo property. It is lush with beautiful, established gardens. When you face east, as in the picture, you gaze at the wondrous, green, mystical West Maui Mountains. Breathtaking!

 A view of a rainbow from the deck of the property.  It appeared to be emerging from the ocean. Rainbows are abundant in Maui.
 The island on the other side of the rainbow is Lana'i. You can only see it faintly due to the cloud covering on Lana'i.

This is the beach a few steps from our property. One day, while we were swimming, we spotted two manta rays swimming between the reefs. Then, we saw a monk seal resting on the reef. It is common to see giant sea turtles here. They can measure up to 6 feet and weigh up to 2000 pounds!
 In the winter months numerous humpback whales congregate here for their amazing courtship and breeding.

  Lastly, the sunset looked like this everyday! The peaceful beauty was magnificent.

                                                             Good night, Hawai'i.
