Maui

So the computer decided it didn't want to upload any photos for a while, so that delayed my post on... MAUI!!! Yes, I went to Maui with my mom and sisters.... It was pretty ridiculous in an amazing way.
They might kill me for posting this but... Jumping pictures...on the beach... I KNOW!

Sister turned 30 this year, the inspiration of the trip.. 'Since 1986 Court!
Everyone got tired of the selfies
No one got tired of the daily rainbows!
Wynt tried teaching me how to curl my hair with a flat iron. That's how it went.
We ate a lot of sushi and fish.
Marsh had a few sweet treats that were on her to do list!
The seven sacred pools were on my bucket list. Little did I know that we had to take the road to Hana to get there!
Wynt braved our drive in our rental car on the narrow road. We stopped about 17 times along the way to the hike. The 60 miles took us about 5 hours!




But of course it was WORTH IT!
The running trail along the beach was just what the doctor ordered.









Ha! Snorkeling was really fun, got to see amazing yellow fish and silver fish which Owen later identified by their real names! Good thing he's around to actually teach ME something!

Passion fruit, green tea, coconut with toasted coconut flakes on top... MMMM!
We ate at Star Noodle, which was a fantastic choice for a blend of flavors.
My favorite photo of her of all time. We were laughing for about 5 minutes straight as she was getting taken under trying to wade into the ocean wearing her fins. She got taken down, and was laughing so hard she couldn't get up!!





On the road to Hana we had lunch at a coconut ice cream hut! Homemade coconut ice cream with fab flavors like ginger lime? YESSS! She offered us fantastic hospitality, chairs, and free passionfruits if you could beat the puppy who was eating them like treats.





This was a very special trip for all of us! It came at such a wonderful time in my life, and I truly feel like it gave me 5 more years of life! I wonder how the locals feel all the time. Laughing with my girls, little responsibility, and much relaxation was the best way to spend 4 days if you ask me!!
