Maui Wowie
For the first time in 6 years I got to
have a Spring Break again and it was ah-mazing.
I got to spend 9 days
on Maui with my parents and my best friend, Megan and a few special
hours with my brother and his family.
Let's recap
Saturday:
Wake up at 3:00am for a 6:30am flight and arrive in Maui at 2pm. Pool
by 2:30pm with the family. Family Dinner, Jackson finds a girlfriend in Megan and then an adventure to the ice cream
shop.

Wednesday:
Day Trip to Haleakala National Park. My Mom really wanted to go to the
top of the volcano. So we drove the windy roads for an hour and half
to the Visitor's Center to reach 10,000 feet and it be completely over
cast and rainy. We turned around and went back down since we couldn't
see a thing. We drove down to Makawao, Up Country, where the hippies and
cowboys live to walk around for a bit. We then went over to
Ho'Okipa
Beach to watch all the surf activity. We finally ended up in Pa'ia for
a little more walking and shopping, but really so we could have Duck
burgers at Cafe Mambo. Pool in the late afternoon.

Thursday: Beach in the morning. Lunch at Maui Brewing Company (I'm obsessed with their Coconut Porter and I don't even like Coconut, but it has a chocolate taste, yummy). Pool in the afternoon. Dinner then bed by 8 or 9pm.
Friday: Another perfect routine vacation day. Dinner then ice cream and cruising the Shops at Waliea.

Saturday: Its cloudy in the am so we skip the beach and just go to the pool. After lunch we went to Macy's for a quick visit with my cousin. Back to the pool for the rest of the day (and whale watching). Dinner, then start packing, tears.
Sunday: Megan left in the am, tear. And then me and parents drive to Makawao for dinner at Deek and Maria's for dinner. After dinner it was time for the airport. Real tears.

Monday: The shittiest part the 14 hour travel, the whole 6 hour time difference really 'effs you up.
