Hawaii Vacation!

So we took a much needed Vacation to Maui. We went for a week and got away from it all. We flew out on Friday the 17th and came back Thursday night the 24th.Here we are at the airport waiting to catch our plane.Here's the plane!Here we are on the plane happy that we can finally see land!The land we see! Finally to Maui! When we got to Maui we got our rental car which was a Convertible Sebring, not the greatest car but it did get us everywhere we wanted to go, and we only used a half a tank! We got to the hotel which was the Ka'anapali Beach Club and here are some views from the room...View from the Balcony toward the waterView from the balcony to the Koy PondOf View of me on the balcony. The View from our door going down to another Koy pond and the restaurant area in the middle of the rooms.another view from the balcony on a bad day.

Once we got settled there we went swimming down at the pool for movie night. They were playing 27 dresses, we watched a little as we swam and then it was time for bed. We spent the next day putting around and then going on a dinner cruise that night. It was ok, the weather was good, the food was ok and the magician was ok. I wouldn't reccomend that trip but it was an adventure. WE did see a few whales while we were out there, so we got one on the camera, it was a picture right before it came up out of the water, the thing was massive.

WE spent the next few days lounging around a visiting Lahina (front sreet) where we shoped and ate at some restaurants, here are some of the Lahina photos:

WE rented some Snorkel equipment (it was sad because I have such a small face that the normal size didn't work for me and it leaked, so we had to go back and get a childs size mask for me)and did snorkeling outside of our hotel, (an I got a panic attack the first time in the water, so Devin had to go out for a while with out me) so here are some views from the beach and those fishies:

Ok so we did take a Snorkeling trip. We were supposed to go to Molakini, but the weather was severely bad the day we decided to go. So we ended up going out farther to an area that is a reserve. Much to our surprise when we got there, there were dolphins in the water that we got to jump in and swim with. I was SOOO happy about that since the "swimming with dolphins at the place" was off limits to pregnant women. But out in the open ocean they can't Stop me. MMMMWWWWAAAHHHHHH. Anyways, we didn't see much out there because it was murky because of the wind, but we did get a few photos of that trip! Totally worth it!

So here are just a few random ones from the week:
The last day. The last day we took it easy. We had dinner plans at the Lahina Grill (very upscale restaraunt) so, we played mini golf, and then went to dinner.. so here are the photos from the last day)-:So I know there are a lot of pictures, but so many people have been requesting them that I tried to get them all on one post. People it took me seriously 5 days to do this post, so I hope you really enjoy the pictures and the not so much commentary.
