Wailuku Maui Hawai’i You may enjoy a streetscape taken through my windscreen as I was crossing Wai’ale Drive bridge, driving west on Highway 32 approaching the historic district of Wailuku to introduce my identical twin sister Karon to the beautiful O’ Iao Valley. The town is at 249 feet at the base of West Maui Volcano, known historically as Mauna Kahalawai and Hale Mahina, on the northern edge of the isthmus of East Maui (Haleakalā) and West Maui. The West Maui Mountains or West Maui Volcano, known to Kanaka, the Hawaiians, as Mauna Kahalawai and Hale Mahina, form a much eroded shield volcano that constitutes the western one-quarter of the Hawaiian Island of Maui. The Hawaiian name for the mountains is “Kahalewai”, meaning House of Water. Another name is Hale Mahina means House of the Moon. It is believed that these mountains are named for the Goddess Hina of the Moon. Wailuku is the county seat of Maui County. This charming small town is located just west of Kahului, at the mouth of the beautiful Iao Valley. In the early 20th century Wailuku was the main tourist destination on Maui. Historic sites in the town include Ka’ahumanu Church (named after one of Hawaii’s great Monarchs, Queen Ka’ahumanu) which dates to 1876, and the Bailey House, also a 19th century relic that is home to a history museum, The Bailey House Museum. There are two ancient temples nearby, Haleki’i Heiau and Pihanakalani Heiau. There are many wonderful antique shoppes and beautiful botanical gardens nearby. O ‘Iao Valley is covered in dense rainforest and is one of the wettest rainiest spots on earth.

Taken north of Noosa on the way to Fraser Island.
This was early one morning on the Maroondah Highway heading out of Melbourne, taken from inside a car.
Taken along golden point road, just off the calder highway. I love the way it shows the sun shining on the morning dew.
This is a rather odd choice for my first upload to RedBubble but the story goes thus… As part of my Pharmacy course we have to go on work placement in a rural location to learn about the challenges facing pharmacists outside the big smoke. This location can be anywhere in Australia. Naturally, we chose Port Douglas in tropical north Queensland, and had the time of our life. Unfortunately, one of the people I was travelling with had to fly back to Sydney early to go to a Jay Chou concert (I know, don’t ask). The drive from the airport back to Port Douglas was probably the most beautiful hour in my life – this photo doesn’t do it justice.
Somewhere along the highways of California…probably Hwy 5.
An obscure road off highway 33 in Central California. The road goes off and seems to drop off into the mountains. The wild scrub and grass speaks of an earlier, non-congested time in California
Broken Bow, OK
Taken in the deserts of California with an old Pentax KX, I had to lie belly down on hot asphalt to capture this shot. Not being roadkill was fairly high on the agenda at this time! The David Lynch movie, Lost Highway, gave me the inspiration for the photo title.
Unusually good road in Kazakhstan. Normally you would spend most days going no faster than 20mph on ‘roads’ that can only be described as a farmers field.
