Maui Trip

Jason and I had the opportunity to spend a few days in Maui.  Home Instead had its leadership conference there and we had many opportunities for excursions and relaxation.  Two of the highlights of the trip were a bike ride down a mountain and a kayak and snorkeling tour to see "turtles".  The kayak  trip turned into a whale watching  trip and we had a 2000 pound  Humpback whale surface just 20 yards from us.  Initially, Jason and I felt like we were in a Jaws movie as the whale went right under our kayak.  We were like a tiny cracker in comparison to his enormous body.  The bike ride was unique also in that we were on a 2 lane mountain rode with no bike lane.  We were dropped off with our bikes at about 7,000 feet and then on our own until we reached the town where our tour began.  I had a death grip on my handlebars.  Jason and I went to a Luau, ate some delicious foods, went on a Sunset Cruise and just enjoyed being together.
