“Got here by accident...”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 January 2013

I didn't realize until later the historical significance of where we were. We rode/walked our bikes up a hill (paved road) and the trouble getting to the top was worth the views we beheld. Maui to the east, Lanai to the south, and Oahu faintly off in the distance to the west.
