Just got back from 10 days in Hawaii — 5 on Maui, 5 on Big Island. Hands down the best trip of my life. Some highlights:

- Sunrise at Haleakala (get there at 5AM, worth it)
- Road to Hana (terrifying driving but gorgeous)
- Volcanoes National Park (seeing actual flowing lava)
- Snorkeling at Molokini crater

Happy to answer questions for anyone planning a Hawaii trip.

How much did it cost roughly? Hawaii has been on my list forever but I'm worried about the budget. Flights alone seem expensive.

The lava at Volcanoes NP is incredible. Did you do the boat tour that gets close to where it enters the ocean? That's bucket list material.

Jealous! Maui is my dream vacation. Was 10 days enough or did you feel rushed?
