Up at 3:15am today in prep for our first of two flights. Our first flight was a little puddle jumper from Sacramento to San Francisco. For plane geeks like me it was a CRJ-200.
Our flight to Maui is on on a 777-200 with the newer lie-flat Polaris Class Seats.
Smooth flight from Sacramento to San Francisco. At SFO we scanned our QR code that proved we tested negative for COVID and the boarded the plane with our wristband.
This allows us to skip a very long line in Maui.
We made it to Maui Kai, our condo for the week, and then hit our favorite fish taco joint. We were a little disappointed since the fish was overdone but we’re hungry enough not to care too much.
Our room wasn’t ready yet so we spent some time in the pool and walked over to see if the restaurant at The Kaanapali Beach Club still had good happy hour appetizers. Everything there is a bit stripped down since table service isn’t back in full swing.
Our room was ready for us by around 2pm (2 hours earlier than check in!) so we unpacked and took a quick nap.
The view is the main purpose of staying at Maui Kai. You have to look straight down over the edge of the balcony to see where the waves are crashing. It’s that close to the water.
After our nap we did a quick run to Times Supermarket to grab some stuff to make breakfast, coffee and snacks. We also got two Maui Gold Pineapples. Yum!
It was dinner time and so we ran over to our favorite little mixed plate hole in the wall only to discover they’re only serving breakfast these days. Fortunately there was a parking lot full of food trucks so we went there and got some pretty satisfying fish and chips.
The evening’s sport was watching the sunset.
It is only 8:40pm here but it’s 11:40pm at home so it is bedtime. Tonight we’ll be sleeping with the slider open so we can hear the ocean. Goodnight!
