The now sleeping volcano that gave birth to the island, Haleakala - the "House
of the Sun" - is a mile deep. And her crater alone stretches seven miles across.
She\'s majestic and truly awesome!
This evening you\'re totally free to do as you please. Why not take the hotel
shuttle back to Lahaina Town with its many shops, attractions and restaurants?
Your tour guide is delighted to help make this your best vacation ever! B
