A cloudy am, but up at 6:00 & put KK's coke in the freezer, start the coffee & back to bed until the Vanilla macadamia nut java is ready. A couple of cookies to tide me over until breakie. Off we go to the Sands of Kahana for a great breakfast & ocean views. We once again see our Canadian friends who we met at the LAX layover. They're playing volleyball--sorta-and having a good time with 11 family members on the island. I had the skillet & KK had the omelet..no lunch for us! One of those plates would have fed both of us. Back to the room and get ready to go snorkeling at Honolua Bay. A short drive up there & a pretty good hike thru a micro-rain forest to the rocky beach & some really good snorkeling. The surf is really BIG at the point, but somewhat calm where we are & the fish & coral are good along the shores..Humu's, eels, a turtle, needle fish & lots of Tangs & Bluestripped Snappers. We do two rounds of water stuff, some snoozing, reading & visiting & also spot a few whales having some fun just off shore from our spot. Back to the room to shower, have a sandwich & decide on where to go this eve. A quick drive to Lahaina & Hilo Hattie's for a little shopping. Also a stroll on Front Street in Old Town Lahaina & some cool art shops..and yes, ABC! Finally we stop at Bubba's for an appetizer & drinks, with the surf still pounding away & good tunes playing at the resturant. Now to get our car "out of hock" and head back to our condo. A good day and seems like we've been here for a week. think we'll sleep in tomorrow & do the volcano later as it's raining now (11:30) and that would ruin the sunrise. see ya tomorrow..in Paradise!
