Hiking the trails to the summit of Diamond Head in O’ahu feels like a right of passage, and let’s be honest, kind of a boot camp at times.  Especially for two 40-ish Moms with lots of kids. We had the pleasure of visiting this magical place recently and although my legs were sore for several days it was well worth the climb.

If you have been watching the news the past few months you have undoubtedly seen many pictures and videos of Kilauea erupting. What most people do not realize is this active volcano has been in a constant state of eruption since 1983 at the Pu'u 'O'o cone in the mountains eastern rift zone. All of this changed on April 30th as magma left both Pu'u 'O'o and the Halema'uma'u crater and created 23 new rifts across the lower eastern rift zone.

​Legend says that to help his mother, the demi-god Maui climbed more than 10,000 feet to the summit and waited while the sun slept in the giant crater of Haleakala. When the sun awoke, and the first rays of sunshine began to appear, Maui caught the sun with his coconut-fiber lasso and demanded that the sun move more slowly across the sky to make the days longer. Left with no other options, the sun and Maui struck a deal- 6 months of the year the sun would move at the speed he liked, and the other 6 months he would move slowly to appease Maui. Pleased with the arrangement, Maui released the sun to continue its journey across the sky.

​Our family travel moto is “TRY SOMETHING NEW”. One of the best thing that I was able to experience while in Maui was snorkeling at Molokini crater.  The kids and Jim have never snorkeled before and we promised each other to try something new on this trip.

​I have to say up front that I am NOT an outdoors kind of person.  I am perfectly happy sitting by the pool with a good book as I relax on my vacation.  But, when my daughter tells me that she wants to hike in the rainforest to see the waterfalls you better believe we are going to do it!
