Ahhhh....Maui



It seems like so long ago (and weather-wise, it certainly was)....but our Thanksgiving Maui jaunt was great! Matt and Mel made their first visit to the Aloha State, and Darla joined us just a few days later--just in time for a Thanksgiving feast. The highlights? Well...it's hard to call out highlights beyond great weather, incredible snorkeling, hot sand, ocean football....but I'd say that seeing the first whale of the season playing 50 yards off the bow is one...and all the dolphins playing with the whale...and Matt finding a lobster on a reef in Ahihi Bay (lobster??!)....and the octopi, all the octopi....and who can beat a big humuhumunukunukuapua'a?
