To the top of the world

On Sunday we decided to drive to Haleakala National Park to see the crater. It was a 2 hour drive each way, which wasn't much fun for the kids. The summit is over 10,000 feet in elevation. It's pretty amazing once you finally make it to the top!

This was taken at a lookout point near the summit. You can't see much besides clouds in the background, though.

I really like this picture of Andy and I. Thanks to Christina for taking it! I don't usually like other people to use my camera because it seems like the pictures never turn out. Christina did a great job with it though!

After a drive through Kula, Makawao, and a couple other small towns, we stopped at Hookipa Beach. It is known as possibly the best windsurfing beaches in the world. As you can imagine, it's windy! It was great watching. We even saw a couple wipe-outs. The kids liked that.

We walked down the street for mexican food that night, and saw this nice sunset while we were finishing dinner.

Even though we didn't do much besides drive, it was a long day! We were all exhausted by the end of it...
