How about I start with our first couple of days....and we'll move along like that.
Our flight left on a Sunday morning. We had a driver pick us up, as it seems easier these days, all around.
We arrived in Kahalui Airport, peeking out any window we could. Trying to find blue water, and green surroundings. Just anything Maui. Anything.
Our first stop was car rental.
I was cracking up with Bill's upgrade choice, I knew this car would soon be whirled off for our adventure...
Next up... vrrrrrooooom.
Kmart. We visited Maui's Kmart. For what you might ask? Well...Sunblocks, ice chest....Corona's...Wine....Fireball...Limes, and never to forget all of the munchies and little things we would soon stuff into the......Cha-Cha-Charger. Ha.
At this point I think we were both exhausted, kind of shocked, and beyond curious. Pulling into Four Seasons Resorts, and our 7 bags, all of which felt like 100 pounds, and all of which were fault of mine. I kept thinking...time to unload, and get our groove on.
But it was bliss. More than I can type out, just simple bliss. As I exited the car, a sweet girl quickly approached me with a Lei. I had kind of wondered where those come into play...as you'd see in the movies, people exiting the plane were quickly covered. After we got Lei'd...(ha) we were quickly escorted inside. As a Mom, my first instinct was to "grab all the stuff". And as I turned to grab the back door, two gentlemen quickly stated "we have everything..." And boy did they. Bill and I walk inside to the counter where the sweet girl brings us AMAZING homemade lemonade (made fresh daily), in cute little cups, while another steps out of a room to hand us super cute rolled, and very cold Eucalyptus towels for our hands.
After check in...we headed to Ferraro's for lunch. Waiting for our room and kind of taking it all in...
Upon arriving into our rooms, there was this on the table...
At times we'd say....hmmm...funny, I wonder where the Maui Wowie is? I mean we live by the ocean...it felt so....Laguna. So Newport.
Until you stepped into the water.....
Where it was warm and refreshing....
The start of our adventure. Day 1 |
This is where the hair starts to take a turn. HA. You know it's humid, wet and muggy if my hair gets into a hat that early.
Our first Sunset. (And actually the weakest..ha) |
Back into the resort for a cocktail before Spago's. |
And yes, I managed to flat iron my hair one. more. time. |
And she was storming around through the house in search of them.
When I told her, she turned around and said..."Mom, seriously"?
Yea, seriously. I tend to toss if something lays around too long.
My bad.
There are a couple of garage sale signs in my hood. It's time to look for more little flower vases.
And maybe, just maybe I will swing into the store for some more seeds.
Happy Sweet Saturday Lover Beans.
Go play. GET OUT in this beautiful California Sunshine. I can tell you, there is no better
place than Cali. That's for dang sure. We do have the best of all the worlds.
May peace be with you, and yours.
Stay sweet.
Live well.
Eat better.
