We slept in until 7am. I sat on the Lanai for a while listening to some meditation stuff and having coffee. We ate breakfast around 8am and then got ready to head out for Kihei. Every few years I have to go over to the south side of the island to remind myself how much I love the side we stay on. Don’t get me wrong. Kihei is still Maui but there’s just something about Kaanapali that feels more “vacationy” to me.
All of that said we had a lovely time hanging out on the beach in Kihei and playing in the water for several hours. The sand on this beach was extra fine and soft (except for the twig that stabbed Mike in the toe) and the waves were gentle.
When not in the water we parked it under our rented umbrella. This part of Maui is usually pretty windy but today it was mild.
After we’d had enough of the beach we checked Yelp for a good place for lunch. We ended up at Coconuts where I had a delicious Caesar salad with a huge piece of Ono (local fish) and Mike had coconut crusted shrimp and chips. Neither of us like dried coconut unless it’s deep fried and on a shrimp. These were yummy!
We made it back to the condo in time for a nap before I had to open up a zoom meeting. Then we decided we’d have fish again, this time in the form of fish tacos.
Once again, Maui Fish Co. nailed it. Two out of three ain’t to bad.
We headed down to the pool and played corn hole (Mike won), darts, (Mike won), and ping pong (I won but Mike may have let me win. Then again, no gimmes.)
We wrapped up the games just in time to catch the sunset. we thought it was going to be a lame one but it ended up subtle and pretty. Not like last night’s show off sunset.
The moon even made an appearance
The time-lapse is pretty neat this time. At around 21 seconds you can see a little old Hawaiian man in an outrigger making his way across the ocean.
I’m falling asleep as I write this so time for bed. Goodnight!
Thanks for following along. ❤️
