ADVENTURES, CHALLENGES, AND INSIGHTS OF A COUPLE IN EARLY RETIREMENT
Our final week in Maui was marked by our long day driving to Hana, hiking in the lava fields, sitting at Makena Beach, and taking care of Covid testing for our flight to our next island paradise, etc. We also made a small trip to the Iao Valley to complete our very thorough exploration of Maui.
Our roving retirement continues in Maui with greater heights, longer boat rides, and extended walks. Having cast off her post-surgical brace, Diana was ready to shift into 3rd gear (Drive will have to wait for more physical therapy).
Our roving retirement has led us to the beautiful Hawaiian islands for the next few months as we anxiously await our turn to get the Covid vaccine. It has been 15 years since we have visited Maui and many things on the island have changed.
Happily, our roving retirement has finally taken us someplace warm. After a brief stop in the Bay Area to swap ski stuff for beach stuff, we arrived in Maui. Our plan is to visit all of the well-known islands in Hawaii over the next few months.
As the conclusion to our mountain sojourn, we wanted to give you a best-of listing based on our own personal experience. Of course, that means my experience since I’m writing this article.
