DAY 2 (d) - MAUI : Lahaina

From the summit of the volcano we drove down to the Lahaina, the former capital of Maui.

From the visitlahaina website: Often called the "jewel in the crown of Maui," Lahaina is a destination that is experienced by two million people, or 83% of all Maui visitors, annually. Lahaina town is the second most visited spot on Maui after beaches. We warmly welcome you to visit our historic town, which is nestled between the calm waters of the Auau Channel facing Lana'i island and the fertile peaks and valleys of Mauna Kahalawai (West Maui mountain range). Lahaina has provided a home for many cultures over the centuries, always welcoming visitors to its inviting shores.

Lahaina is quite a charming old fashioned little town...
