Aloha Friday from Maui

Alooooooooooooooooooooooha.

For a Friday in which we didn't plan anything, it's sure been a good day. We blew off breakfast (again) and slept in a little bit. Today was going to be about sitting out by the pool and catching some rays, and that's what we did. We enjoyed some cool pineapple wedges followed by some not-the-healthiest nachos for a lunchtime snack. We spent a good two hours down by the pool while I was catching up on some reading for my photography class.

Back at the room to cool off, what else did we see from our lanai? None other then more whales swimming out near the surface. Grabbing the binoculars again, we saw what looked like a mother whale with her calf, both slapping their fins in the water, and in some cases, at the same time. Maybe it was a swimming lesson of sorts. Either way, it was still a sight and is definitely not getting old.

Everyone's finishing getting ready now, and Cindy is writing up postcards for our family and friends, most of which don't follow this blog anyway (they don't know what they're missing). We have to make a stop to Whalers today so Cindy and mom can bring their rings in for inspection and then can start wearing them for the rest of the trip. Then it's off to Lahaina for dinner. We're thinking of going to BJ's for pizza, but nothing is really final yet.

As you can probably tell from the posts so far on this trip, everything is absolutely wonderful and just what we remember from our past trips. Steve (my boss) if you happen to be reading this, we definitely need to start talking about a telecommuting plan. Maybe one month intervals to start. :)

Our weekend plans look wide open at this point, and Saturday night is HAPA!!!! That, without a doubt, is going to be the ultimate highlight of this trip. Seeing that everything is been so perfect thus far, it says a lot.

Aloha and Mahalo.
