We arrived late in the afternoon on Day 1...enough time to put our toes in the sand and catch a bit of sunlight (through the rain drops).

Our dinner on night #1 was at a Benihana-style restaurant...hence the onion inferno.
Day #2 was a trip to Lahaina. We stopped at Longs Drugs where Brian picked up many, many pairs of Locals Flip Flops...His staple footwear. Then we were off to Lahaina town to wander around, explore local art galleries, and have lunch!

Brian enjoys a mai tai and a restaurant strangely enough called...Mai Tai's.
The sun came out on day three...and we spent quite a lot of time sitting by the pool and lounging around the beach.

Brian decided to spice up the lazy day by jumping off the "cliff." I swear...that is
him waving in the picture.
What I didn't know was that Brian had stepped on a sea urchin prior to his jump. His foot was full of spikes!
Despite Brian's foot injury, we headed up to the Westin for some shopping, a massage, and then Dinner.

The weather cooperated on our last day, so we worked on our tans (or touristy sunburns as it turns out), and got ready to hit the airport for a red eye home!

After a particularly turbulent flight home, we arrived exhausted and relaxed...and surprised by the snow on the ground!

Ahhh, Hawaii...It looks so glorious as I am sitting here on a rainy evening! So glad you got to go and relax in the balminess that we once called home. XOXOXO
Looks like fun although not that sunny! I am still jealous though!
