At Kahului airport, we rented a car. We looked at the car, after that we went to K-Mart and to CostCo to buy a blanket. We drove to Tedeschi winery and learned how they make wine. We bought two bottles of wine and we had lunch.
Then we went to Kula Lodge to drop our luggage and we drove to the top of Haleakala to see where we would start tomorrow. We had a beautiful view of the crater with a lot of small cinder cones. There were a lot of silversords, and it was very cold and windy. We could even see the Big Island in the distance.
