I love spotting whales from shore and then trying to predict where they will pop up again.

The art galleries in Lahaina, Maui Hands, Sherrie Reeves T-shirts, the buffet breakfast at the Hyatt, the sunsets.

I love the Bailey House Museum in Wailuki, particularly the small gift shop with its nice selection of books, CD's, and local crafts. I also like sitting in the museum's peaceful back yard, gazing up at the West Maui mountain looming in the background. (I always hope Kealii Reichel will stroll by, humming "Maunaloa". He used to work at the museum, and was inspired by this scene, also)

I also love the look of Haleakala and Upcountry from below in So. Maui. My favorite times are early morning, when the sky turns pink and purple as the sun rises from behind the hump of the mountain; and early evening when the lights start twinkling on the slopes.
