Catamaran sunset cruise
Yet another lazy day at the condo. Erin and Nadine relaxed for most of the day, either reading out on the lanai or watching the darn telly (that time waster..). I did a little bit of work and started sorting the hundreds of pictures we took during this ...
Aloha Maui
... at 9:30AM and reached Hana around 4PM. We took 2 hikes to beautiful waterfalls during the trip. We didn't get back to to the Ka'anapali Alii until 10PM or later. Loooong day, but it was full of Maui scenery. Day 10: Lazy beach day. Ryan tried ...
We've been busy!
... the local Marriott's bar and lounged in the sun and surf all day. Ryan, his sister Jen, and I went para sailing over Ka'anapali beach -- gorgeous and surprisingly serene experience. We had our first taste of seafood at Hula Grill, down the beach. ...
Aloha!
Having a great time here in idyllic surroundings. Our hotel is superb and we have a lovely ocean view room - fantastic breakfasts - just lovely. We hired a car yesterday and have been up to the top of the highest mountain on the island, by ...
HE SAID: Urgent (Tsunami Warning in Hawaii)
An emergency news bulletin just popped up on the TV and there was a big earthquake in the Pacific Island of Samoa just now and they issued a tsunami warning for Hawaii, New Zealand, Fiji and many other South Pacific countries. I am on my lanai now ...
HE SAID: The Best of List
Never made it to temple for Yom Kippur but my mom shared with me what the rabbi's sermon was about at the temple she attended in Ft. Lauderdale. The topic of the sermon was, 'SEIZE THE MOMENT'. Wish I could have caught that speech cause that ...
SHE SAID: Beach Bums....literally.
Late again. ... I know. I've been so busy doing nothing I forgot to blog about our day. We spent the entire afternoon on Kaanapali Beach. Huge with really hot sand. I wanted to go back again to see if I could find the turtle ...
HE SAID: Plate Lunch Anyone??
Ate an awesome Hawaiian plate lunch today at Maui's best plate lunch joint. It's called Da Kitchen. It was featured on the travel channel during their Hawaii piece. I am getting a little sick of the travel channel because when they ...
HE SAID: RANDOM THOUGHTS
Was not aware that ahi poke is that addicting....every supermarket sell their version fresh. This stuff is awesome for sushi lovers. Never add your girlfriend or wife to the car rental policy. A crummy driver on the mainland generally ...
SHE SAID: Sorry I'm late. . . . .AGAIN.
... a warm sea (I can't stand cold water especially in a pool). The greatest part of it all is, it's still in the UNITED STATES! My driver's license is valid, my health insurance is accepted, I know the language fluently and I can Facebook and ...
The road to Hana and back...
Our adventure continues: we woke up early Wednesday morning, packed up the Ford Escape and set off around 10 am for our drive to Hana. We got sidetracked at the Harley dealership buying t-shirts, but then were on our way. The first town we came to was ...
SHE SAID: Leaping Lizards!
Let me just start out by saying, I finally figured out what those little black balls are on the lanai and around the door cracks. Lizard doo! Yes it is! I went out on the lanai yesterday to watch the sunset...When the sun went down the ...
SHE SAID: TURTLES!!!
Yesterday (they call it Thursday in Paradise) was and will probably be one of the most memorable days of my life. Two things happened. I found out I can snorkel without a float and I swam with a Hawaiian Sea Turtle aka Honu. We went to the ...
HE SAID: Major Discovery Today
A surfer dude at the beach yesterday told me one of his secret go to dishes. You take a papaya and cut it in half.......remove the seeds and cut open a lilikoli, which is an indigenous fruit of hawaii. You take the seeds out of the lilikoli ...

HE SAID: 5 DAYS INTO TRIP
It was difficult to get motivated to write this travel blog after arriving as life is pretty simple and there is not a great deal to say other than this is one damn relaxing place to cool out. Day after arrival we drove to the Maui Swap Meet (which is ...

Aloha, Why are things so damn expensive here? Gallon of Milk - $6 Gas - $3.85 per gallon 24 pk. case of bottle water - $10 Gillette Sensor Razor Blades - $23 for a pack of 10 Do you think a tsunami warning would scare me off from surfing? Why are there ...
Maui for Whales and Mai Tai's
The absolute worst part about travel is by far airplanes. With the advent of the world's smallest seats and personal space reduced to accommodations for fleas, using a laptop or even sometimes reading a novel can be a challenge. If you add a small ...
A Maui "Mugging"
After a night of Mai Tai research and a full day of our own Lahaina economic stimulus, Stacy and I boarded the vessel of The Pacific Whale Foundation for a sunset cocktail whale watching cruise. The Foundation is a non-profit organization whose sole ...
HE SAID: Time passing by too quickly
When we go to Napili Beach, we see this clown combing the beach looking for coins and jewelry with his supersonic metal detector......a real cheese eater. So, I have taken it upon myself to mess with him. I take out all of my pennies and randomly ...

Are We Getting Soft?
We shortened our stay in Maui because we simply couldn't find any reasonably priced accommodation which supported the quintessential Maui experience- namely a room somewhere near the beach. We bit the bullet and booked into some sort of ...
Hawaii (Days 11-14)
Ok, so a lot has happened since our last entry... Thursday morning we got up and drove to Lahaina. It actually wasn't a very long drive, jut one town over. Lahaina is a hoppin' little town though. The first thing we did was go on a ...

We Have a Winner!
Max was in the zone. He couldn't wait to get to the pool to do some warm up slides. After his win, he lamented that water sliding wasn't an olympic sport. (We figured it's not that much different from luge and bobsledding.) Given the ...
