May 2006
Definitely a very special month because of the awesome time we spent hearing and repeating aloha, mahalo, mahalo, aloaaaaaaaaha
I never finished my last travelogue. Hopefully this one will be better. Our flight out was at 6:00 am and I had a lot of errands to run the evening before. And that meant I ended up not sleeping that night at all. Before Vegas trip I had slept for an hour or two. Anyway, I made up for that in the flightS and by the time we reached Maui at 3:00 pm local time I was pretty much able to drive. After being very fussy about the color of the Jeep Wrangler at Alamo, we finally got the one that we wanted. The code name for that color is Xterra Yellow. Here it is standing next to a roadside Sugarcane Juice stand. Other colors are taken off to concentrate on this Jeep as it played a big role in making our Maui stay fun. I could pretty much drive that thing anywhere and nobody could overtake me. A couple tried and failed (much of that I owe to single lane roads but a little bit of dramatization helps.)

Priceline blessed us with a nice resort (tennis courts/swimming pool/one of the finest Luaus etc) and we had a garden view room. That typically means you can view some trees and maybe some ocean but it is not guaranteed. Here is the view from our room balcony. First the trees and then the ocean.
Sorry! Thanks to the red-eye, I am exhausted. Rest will have to wait. Enjoy the sense of humor from Maui.
