Maui baby!!




Mikey and I took some desperately needed time away and headed down to Maui for a week of R&R. We took our traveling buddies Clarence & Lynn with us as we prefer to travel with live entertainment whenever possible! The weather was in the 80's all week, but winter brings more severe tradewinds and winds got up to a pretty steady 50 MPH. This made for extremely choppy waters and forced the canceling of the side trip to snorkel the Molokini crater. The water was bad enough that almost 1/4 of the people on our catamaran were seasick, which was the most they had ever seen. We saw tons of humpback whales, even saw a mom and her calf with an escort pod! There was a lot of breaching and tons of blowholes and a pack of spinner dolphins with them, which the whale foundation had never seen them together like that.

More posts and pics later!!
