Hike to the waterfall..Scenic Sunday

Camera Critters follows my Scenic Sunday


My hubby and I saw a lot while in Maui, on one day we hiked to a waterfall. The trail took us thru a bamboo forest. I could not believe that bamboo grew so tall. I am just sorry I was not into birding as I am now. I am sure I passed many birds along that trail. The scenery was so lush and pretty.



                              Looking back at the road to Hana, Maui. The road was miles of scenic beauty.











I am usually always hiking ahead of my hubby








my Hawaii snaps  This is a link to see more of my Hawaii snaps.

Thanks for stopping by to see my Scenic Sunday photos and to see more Scenic Sunday shots go and visit the Holleys at Scenic Sunday

    I sat down, listened to the songs by those birds, and kept waiting, I didn't see them. My today experience.

    I love the greenery. Yours are beautiful.

    That's my kind of road. I haven't been to Hawaii, yet. It's on the list.
    What an amazing bamboo forest towering over head. And that waterfall is awesome. Nice walk. I feel like I went along.

    Ah ... your GORGEOUS views of Maui bring back memories of my visits there. Thanks for sharing and for dropping by Sacred Ruminations. It's not often we see 'snow capped' mountains but the wetlands provided the best view after Monday's rain washed the air clean ;-)
    Hugs and blessings,

    We survived the road to Hana many years ago, but we drove it, didn't hike like you did!
    Wonderful pix which brought back great memories, thanks for that.
