Backpacking Maui (Nov 2005)

Total miles covered 9435 by plane, 140 by car	Total miles on foot 22	Number of Pics 60
Highlights A 10 day backpacking exploration of Maui on a shoestring budget. Starting with super-cheap $600 round trip plane tix out of Fort Wayne airport w/ layover in LAX and then 6 hours to Hawaii was not fun, but everything in between was truly paradise! This was a first time in Hawaii for all of us and was an amazing experience full of sun, waves, fresh fruit, mountains, beaches, tents, and giant foot-long centipedes. We even were able to meet a few of our brothers in Hana and go to a meeting with a attendance of only 2 others.
