Aloha one final time!

The Road to Hana - Maui, Hawaii
Today I am going to share with you a bit of our time we spent in Lahaina!
Here are some pictures that I snapped along the way with a little story thrown in for fun!
“Lāhainā is the largest census-designated place (CDP) in West Maui.”
It also “was the capital of the Kingdom of Hawaii from 1820 to 1845” .
The city was a great place to go and we spent a good amount of time there visiting different shops, eating at multiple restaurants over the course of our trip, and taking in the great views that I am going to share with you today!
Welcome to Lahaina!

One evening we decided to try out Aloha Mixed Plate

We had to park a short walk away and wait a bit for a table, but it was a great place to go!
The food was good and the views were fantastic!

Then after dinner we took in a beautiful sunset!

After all that walking and sightseeing we were hungry and so we decided to grab a bite to eat at Down the Hatch .

I had the amazing Sampler Platter that had Lava Shrimp, Kalua Pig Quesadilla, and delicious Crispy Calamari!
Needless to say, it was fantastic!
After that we took a short walk back to The Outlets of Maui where we took in a free Hula Show .

After the show, we went walking the sea side again and took in the sights as the night drew near.

As we walked around I noticed they had some fun and unique store front signs and so I snapped shots of them as we walked.
