Hawaiian Honeymoon


Our sunset cruise that turned into a whale watching extravaganza. The whales were so active this evening.

Our snorkeling trip to Molokini and Turtle Town! Those wetsuits are HOT aren't they?!!

The view from our room!


Andrew taking advantage of his one time in life to pretend to be tarzan! This was at Twin Falls in the rainforest of Maui. Very cool little spot tucked away. The water was SO cold. When we got it in it took our breath away!

On the boat to go whale watching!


Andrew and I went to Maui for our honeymoon. We took a delayed honeymoon (went in April) due to timeshare availability. It ended up being the best thing we could have done. After the wedding we were so tired and I don't think we would have enjoyed it as much. We've been to Maui a few times but there are a few things that we just don't get tired of: whale watching, great food, sunsets, being out on the water and snorkeling. This time we found a cool little place called Twin Falls that is tucked back in the middle of the rainforest. It's about 1/2 mile hike back in there and it is just beautiful! The whales this time were just spectacular! In April they are getting ready to migrate back to Alaska. They come to Hawaii to mate in the warm water so April is the last chance the males have to mate. They really put on a show when they get desperate. We saw so many breeching (flying out of the water) and doing massive pectoral fin slaps. What a site to see these mammels who are thousands of pounds just fly out of the air! We had so much fun and can't wait to go again!!
