Maui: The Shoutouts.
Alii Nui sunset dinner cruise – the photo on our home page is from this event, and we dedicated a blog post to it. On the ‘must do’ list if you go to Maui. Pricey but it includes hotel pickup and drop off and all food & drink (which is fantastic). Top-notch service. A good…

And introducing…
Our constant companions: Travel Bear and his wife. They will pop up from time to time, because they are far more photogenic than we are. THEY TOTALLY ARE!

Our last days in Maui.

The cost of pie.
We went out to “Warren and Annabelle’s Magic show” in Lahaina last night (thanks Chris & Jen for the recommendation). The dinner was fabulous and the magic show is both hysterical and incredible. I gave up trying to figure out how these “close-in” magicians do their ‘thing’. Though pricey we thought it was well worth…

Our favourite stroll.
We love the Ka’anapali beachwalk (5 mile roundtrip from where we start), especially between 8:00 and 10:00 a.m., before it gets too hot. It seems most other walkers think the same way…
