En Route To Maui

So our twin-engine prop Island Air DHC8 flew low and slow, as I like it, from Lihue on Kauai to Kahului on Maui, affording marvelous views of five of Hawaii's larger islands...
Bye-bye, Kauai














Oahu's northwest cape; note gigantic waves














Desolate west coast of Oahu














Honolulu sprawl













Pearl Harbor, Battleship Row, Missouri and Arizona Memorial
















Next up: Molokai














Molokai southwest coast; we'll see the splendiferous northeast
coast via heli later; even lower and slower















Over desolate and sparse Lanai now














From Lanai to Maui...10 miles? 5?














On approach to Kahului; Lahaina, where the boats are
headed, is where we'll stay
