moving in maui

Aloha from beautiful Maui! We got here yesterday around 2:30 and it was wiiiiiindy. And pretty cloudy too but it's still Maui so it's ok. I didn't get a chance to do any moving because we just didn't have time. The condo is on the opposite side of the island from the airport so it took quite awhile to get there. Then all the settling in and the things of that nature. We went to dinner at the Hula Grill, which is one of our favorite restaurants ever in the history of the world. I got fish and chips like usual but it was not good at all, which is a really good thing because now that'll force me to order something else when we go there. We go several times during one stay so this is a big thing for me. I also said no to dessert....YES!


On this trip, we have me, Anthony, Jenny, Adam, Ethan, Will and Anthony's parents. A's parents are staying at another condo just about a mile away from ours.

We went to Costco today and I'm very proud of myself for bypassing the Maui chips and honey roasted macadamia nuts. I could eat a whole Costco size bag of those in one sitting. Before I left, my mom told me that those snacks are for fat people. She knows that's always the way to get me to quit eating. That woman's got skillz.


I had big plans to go for a walk this morning but I just never got into moving mode so I gave up on that idea. Then I laid down for a nap around sunset and got the sudden urge to MOVE. So move I did. Got my shoes on and my iPod and hit the ground. It was the perfect time of day to go walking. It wasn't too hot, there was a nice breeze and the sun wasn't beating down on me. On our way to dinner, Anthony checked the odometer and we figured it was about a mile and a half. Not bad.



Will took this pic early this am.

 

Oh look, it's my favorite baby Ethan!

Good for you for skipping the nuts. Your willpower is much stronger than mine! Keep up with the walking. Dacia
