Ive really been enjoying my morning routine at the resort. Up at 6 when it’s still a bit cooler and cloudy. Pick up a coffee drink at the little store, and hit the boardwalk. No headphones, no music, just the sounds of the ocean, the birds, and other folks passing by.
Lazy(ish) day as we are halfway through the big trip. Started the day with a very nice walk along the boardwalk. I miss you Bella and I’ll be home in a few days! Rest of the day really wasn’t much: lots of napping, a few small trips to the pools, no ocean time today, and watching the Knicks erase a 29 point deficit to win game 4. Jen and Sean both had work for their lives on the mainland. Also walked through a small farmers market that was set up next to the resort. Thanks to Scribbs for grilling out again
Time to adventure into town! Sarah had heard lots of good things about The Gazebo restaurant, so we went in search. Got in line at 715 for breakfast service that started at 730. We were finally seated at 9. Pancake trio was awesome. Once our bellies were full, we headed to a shopping plaza to find some souvenirs. Scott and I found an ocean side bar. Actually several. So we spent the next several hours trying them all out! Thanks Jen for getting us back to the property safely. A Jeep looks good on you. Cooked a delicious spaghetti dinner, then a sunset swim in the ocean, my new favorite way to end the day.
We ended up surviving the jungle that is the Maui CostCo. Grabbed some dinner at a food truck park, and we were off the resort. After getting checked in, and unpacks and organized, it was off to explore our beach. Monday was a lazy day on property. Swimming in the ocean and pools, lounging and reading, and trying to knock off some of the $625 worth of food and drinks we secured at CostCo. Took a morning walk with Jen on the boardwalk. Grilled out ocean side, watched game 3 of the NBA finals which started at 2PM Maui time, and of course enjoyed a few sticks with the boys. Interesting trees they have here on the islands.
