I received this postcard from Lilli and Rebecca when they drove to Hana during our December trip to Maui. I supplied the stamps. They said it was “roughly the equivalent of several raccoons.”

Driving the Road to Hana is an experience that is not easily illustrated. This card does a pretty good job but it doesn’t get there. A photo of a concert does not give you the experience of going to the concert. The same is true with the Road to Hana. It has to be driven. Many people hate it and some have died. I think the drive is worth it for the adrenaline rush. An extra bonus is that at the end of the drive you can walk through the Bamboo Forest and hear the music of the bamboo trees in the wind. It is natural music and it is magical.
