Postcard of Maui clouds

December 8, 2011 in Places,Postcards,United States

The best part of Maui isn’t clear blue skies. It’s the clouds.

Molokini Crater and south Maui, Hawaii Wispy or fat, pure white or infused with purple, sun shining through them or rainbow arcing on top of them…during my week in Maui for a family Thanksgiving, I just couldn’t get enough of Maui clouds.
