Friday's Guess Where This Is ?

[kyfanatic]

I'll do some from around Kentucky next,but like to see who can figure these out of state ones out.I'll put up 4 pictures because this is a tough one,although it's in the United States.

Haleakala on Maui

Haleakala on Maui

That would be my guess as well.

My wife and I honeymooned on Maui and rented a convertible Mustang to drive up the Haleakala to see the sunrise. Little did we know that you're supposed to check the weather before you do--after an hour of driving up the mountain, and 100 hairpin curves, we get to the top...and it's shrouded in fog.

Totally. We were the only car there.

Yep,you got it. It was 82 degrees on the beach and in the low 30's and snowing up on top of the volcano.There are different climates as you go up the mountain.Part of the way up the air is mild and they have precipitation similar to Kentucky, instead of 200+ inches of rain like they get on one side of the island.Very interesting gardens cared for by an oriental couple in this area.I bought a bonsai tree and a Macadamia Nut tree,my oldest son swiped the Bonsai tree.

It looks like a beautiful place.

We spent 2 weeks there and had a great time if you exclude the 11-1/2 hour flight and not adjusting to the time change.I would wake up at 3:00 am every night because of the time difference.
Chartered a private boat and caught a nice Blue Marlin,we had whales rolling close to the fishing boat several times,very neat experience.I have pictures,but where is the question.
