Hawaii Day 2

We drove up Haleakala early this morning to see the sunrise.  It wasn't terribly spectacular.
There were lots of beautiful silverswords around.
We walked a bit down Sliding Sands trail and were fascinated by the ice crystals underfoot.  The ground apparently freezes every night then thaws again when the sun comes out.
We drove back down the mountain, stopping at a couple of lookouts with neat views into the crater, and getting a late breakfast at Kula Lodge.
