sunrise on Haleakala

after 8 hours of tennis yesterday, we woke up early enough this morning to leave at three... yes, 3:00 AM. Now, i am an early riser, but that is even too early for me. Anyway, we left at 3am so that we could make it to the top of the volcano haleakala so that we could catch the sunrise. After about 2 hours of driving, we made it to the top where it was stinking cold, considering no one packed clothes for that temperature... we were all layered and had blankets. It took a long time for the sun to start peeking above the clouds, but once it started to come up, it came fast... so here are some of the pictures from this morning!
