The first time I came here I was totally unimpressed. I was visiting Maui as a tourist and looking for all of the dramatic places. Now that I live here, I am incredibly interested in natural areas that are protected and flourishing. Kanaha Pond is a reserve for the protection on some of Maui's native birds. And so today was very different from that first visit. It was peaceful and delightful. Arjuna has been here many times and he is easily moved into a meditative state, so he naturally loves places like this. We had just come from a visit to Hale Ki'i Pihana and Kukuipuka so we were already drenched in Maui's natural beauty.
