I was going to keep a Maui diary, but that fell by the wayside real quick. My laptop only works occasionally at the condo.....sometimes on one side of the lanai table, and sometimes the other. Never works inside. At the pool, I was able to get on, but would get knocked off quickly. Really strange. Now I'm in the condo office. There are few computers here to use.
This is has been a fantastic trip. We went to the Maui Onion Festival on Saturday where we got a huge plate of Maui deep-fried onion rings for $5. Later we had dinner at Bubba Gump's which is right on the ocean....literally. I had coconut shrimp that was to die for! Then we went to "Ulalena" which is a musical production about the beginnings of Hawaii. The singing and dancing was spectacular, but the music held most of my attention. The percussionist was a joy to watch and I fell in love with the male lead singer. It was worth every penny.
Today I "accidently" slept in until 10AM. I was so comfy, cozy in my king-sized bed with the breeze blowing through the windows. Our room is on the 4th floor. My bedroom is a loft. Our lanai is huge and overlooks the ocean and the pools and gardens of the complex. Our orginal room sucked and we asked for a better one. We got the best!
We drove upcountry Friday. I bought a couple of arty items and had lunch at the best Mexican restaurant I've been at in years.....a little hole in the wall that was full of locals. Then you know it's good food.
Plans for the next few days? We'll figure that out sometime. Aloha!
