Beautiful Day in God's Country. Our Condo is nice enough. A Murphy pull down bed in the living room is part A of #202 and later we figured out our key also opens part B, with a bed and second bath -- what they originally had scheduled for us and call a hotel suite. We are spreading out in parts A and B and don't even mind the lanai which overlooks a side parking lot. (Oh that first year when we had an ocean view.) I'm smiling here and remembering the romantic escalation of that ocean view. That was the year we bought the time share at The Cliffs in Princeville, Kuai. I went looking for that lava hot tub which is open 24 hours and found it. Here is our private little romantic spot. No one else around. Then off to remember Lahaina and Front Street. Fond memories flood our spirits as we grab our cameras to capture the beauty. We end up having breakfast on the upper deck of ------------- me with the scrambled eggs and toast and Ken eating his Macadamia Nut/Pineapple pancakes with 2 eggs over easy and Polish sausage. Love this ocean breeze. We walked the street, remembering the fun and beauty. Then we visited Safeway for a few groceries. It is hard to be careful and not over-buy more than we will consume in the next six days. Eggs, milk, olive oil, bananas, a pineapple and papaya,Some deli meats and a loaf of bread -- $100 plus and a lot of fun.
We take another drive, this time down the southern part of Maui's coast line. This is our journey through Wainee to Maalaea and across the sugar plantations to Kihei.
We are looking for that memorable, historic little church where we were taking photos when suddenly the wedding party came rushing out the door. We took photos of the happy bride and groom, nevee knowing who or why.
We keep going as far south as the road takes up. Oh my, what wealth we pass, luxury mansions and massive resorts. We travel through Kamaole and Makena all the way to the end of the road where we find the miles of lava rock and the Kanahena Beach.
We are on a Marine Life Conservation District and Molokini Isle is so close, you can almost swim there.
But where is that little church? So we start baclk up the Island still looking until we finally find it.
