just a quick drive-by

I just wanted to rub it in...I'm in Maui, and you're not!

I really really REALLY wanna move here. Really.

One of things we did in Maui was whale watching. Is that on your agenda? Enjoy your visit and take lots of photos.

It was 87 and sunny here today. I was able to get in my pool and it was quite pleasant. Not exactly Maui, but I guess that will have to do for me anyway.

Whale watching season ended a few weeks ago unfortunately. I'm kinda hoping we catch up to them when we cruise from here to Vancouver.

I was just thinking of Uly a coupleof minutes ago as I ordered fish tacos for lunch (he's the first person I ever saw eat them!). Luau tonight, touring the dormant volcano tomorrow, the 5 days at sea...

Did I mention that I REALLY wanna move here? :-)

I had fish tacos for the first time last week. It was served with a tangy, semi-spicy mango sauce and was surprisingly good. I have avoided eating them for years. I might even order them again. My friend and I split our order and one was enough for each of us.

Had I not spent the day in beautiful, scenic Spring City Tennessee I might be upset at your post. However, I DID spend my day in beautiful, scenic Spring City, a place that can boast many varied attractions like having not only a McDonalds but also a Hardees.

Dammit! You're in Maui and I'm not

I loved how different each island is.

Oahu is not Maui and so on.

They each have something different to offer.

Not a problem.

You do have lots of money, right?

You won't after you move there of course...

How nice!!! What part of Maui are you staying? The mall in Wailea has an ice cream store with the most wonderful ice cream.

Have a great time. The weather in Chicago is 58, windy, cold and rainy, just so you know.
