Default Maui Sunset

Back From Maui, hated to leave!
Peaceful wind blows in my face as the Sun moves lower on the horizon, setting in motion the random kaleidoscope of Beauty.

I can definitely see why you didn't want to leave. This is beautiful, who did you paid to get the sun to set like this when you want to take photographs?

*contented sigh* I just wanna sit there on the beach, on a blanket, salt tinged air filling my senses. I feel like I'm there.

Thank You for the lovely comments. Our last night we walked for over a mile along the beach. The water washing around our feet, breeze blowing the salt spray. Amazing!

Thank You Leona! We are thinking of looking for a condo there. I'd love to be able to spend a few weeks a year just exploring the islands.
