3rd Day in Maui

Today we went on the Road to Hana. Below is the description on the highway, I personally think my Mom and Brother would love it! ;-) We had fun going 10 miles an hour and it was a long day. We loved the scenery but don't know if we will go on the drive again.

The Hāna Highway (also known as the Hana Road or Road To Hana) is the name given to the 68-mile long stretch of Hawaii State Highways 36 and 360 which connect the population center of Kahului with the town of Hāna in east Maui. On the east after Kalepa bridge Hana Highway continues to Kipahulu as Hawaii Highway 31 (Piilani Highway) first section of which is often (unofficially) also considered to be a part of Hāna Road. Although Hāna is only about 52 miles/84km from Kahului, a typical trip to Hāna takes about three hours, as the road is very winding, very narrow and passes over 59 bridges, 46 of which are only one-lane bridges, requiring oncoming traffic to yield and occasionally causing brief traffic jams if two vehicles meet head-on. There are approximately 620 curves along Highway 360 from just east of Kahului to Hana, virtually all of it through lush, tropical rainforest. Many of the concrete and steel bridges date back to 1910 and all but one are still in use.
