Maui relaxing and resting

 Our two favorite places to go is Maui or the cabin.  Life would be so sweet if we could spend the winter months in Maui and then live at the cabin the rest of the year.  Our 30th anniversary is coming up in February and Steve got tickets to Maui.  We have never been in January and soon realized why.  Prices are sky high and it was very hard to find a motel.  We love this condo in Kehei, but they were all booked up.  Steve found a deal on travelocity for a car and motel.  The motel was in Walleia, which has the

 nice and expensive hotels.  We took a chance and it worked this time.  The hotel was so nice.  We had a beautiful room that overlooked the ocean and our beach was nice.  I love the sandy beaches of Hawaii.  We got in around 10:30 and got the car.  Steve got a convertible mustang, which was a fun surprise.  Thank goodness we are familiar with Maui and found the hotel with no problems because the stomach flu hit me.  I spent the night in the bathroom.  Berkley and Bellamy had it on Sunday, so I figured my time would come.  Monday I was still not feeling great so we took it easy and that set the stage for the rest of the trip.  We were so lazy.  It was great.  We sat by the beach, then moved to the pool, then drove to Kehei to eat and back to more sitting and relaxing. 

 Then at night we would grab the binoculars and watch the whales and the sunset. 

With all this sitting around we had to treat ourselves and signed up for a chocolate massage at the beach.  Very relaxing listening to the waves crashing and being slathered in coco-butter.  We didn't sit the whole time and I will post more later.
