We got a late start on today’s activities.  After coffee and breakfast of cereal and fruit, we packed up folding lawn chairs, beach towels, photography equipment and lunch to head out for the day.

Our first stop was the Lahaina Pali trail and Old Honoapi’ilani Highway to get a geocache (about 8:30 AM).  It was on the Old Highway after a short climb up the trail.  We made a mistake and took the Lahaina Pali Trail up for some distance before realizing that we’d made a wrong turn.  So, we kept on for a bit more to get to the higher views of the trail, ocean and new road.  While stopped to photograph Joyce on the trail, another hiker came along and offered to take a picture of both of us.  Then we continued back down to the junction with the Old Highway and turned left to get to the cache in about 0.2 miles before continuing to the car parked below.

Next up (about 11 AM) was a stop at one of the many parks next to the beach for surfing and beach access.  Joyce finally got Gary into the water!  We photographed some surfers and clouds.  After about a half hour of being in the sun, we packed up our chairs, loaded up the car and headed for Lahaina.

In Lahaina we participated in an Event Cache  (12N to 1:30 PM)which gets us another souvenir o(Meet Your Road Trip Friends)  geocaching.com.  Met some nice folks from Austria, New Hampshire and California.  Ate pizza and drank some beer.

The event was followed by getting a couple of more geocaches in Lahaina at the Banyan Tree Square and the Wo Hing Chinese Museumk and the Lahaina Public Library.  Checked out the location of the Old Lahaina Luau that we plan on going to next Monday night.

On the way back to Kihei we stopped at the Lighthaus Camera shop to see about getting a charger for Joyce’s camera–Gary seemed to have missed it in the packing.  They might have one next week…..

Another nice island day!
