A Week in Maui, Hawaii

My last trip before the COVID shutdown of 2020

Had an amazing time in Maui. Every time I've gone to Hawaii, I've learned something new about myself, and learn to appreciate the little things even more. This time was a little extra, though I didn't realize it until I was flying back home on literally one of the last flights to depart when the US started closing everything down in response to the COVID pandemic.

  • First night on the beach. Long shot of the sand right as the tide comes in at sunset. Mostly clear skies with hues of blue and red.
