Hawaii Day 2

Today’s adventures began before the sun came up. We had to get our butts to the airport to catch a 6:18 flight to Maui. The flight itself was only about 20 minutes long, and by 7:00a.m. we were heading to the rental car place. I was a little nervous about my car reservation. Although we had a confirmation number it seemed that all rental cars on Maui were booked for the week so I wasn’t sure how legit my reservation was. I did not have to worry . . . we not only had a car, we had one that wasn’t a clown car. This week we are driving a Toyota Corolla. We got in the car and headed to our hotel, the Sheraton Maui. By 8:00a.m. we were checking in. For those of you that know me, I’m still normally waking up around this time so I’m not used to getting so much accomplished before 8:00a.m. Our room wasn’t ready, but we were able to store our luggage and enjoy the beach, pool, and lounge chairs. Mostly we just chilled and try to catch a nap. We also booked our excursions for the week. Tomorrow we will have another early morning as we will catch a shuttle at 3:15a.m. to go to the top of a mountain to watch the sun rise, and then ride bicycles down the mountain. It looks like Tuesday we will probably drive to Hana. On Wednesday we will take a snorkeling, whale watching, dolphin watching trip around Lanai, and on Thursday we are hoping to go deep sea fishing. We just need another couple who wants to share a boat to reserve and we will be good to go. If not, we won’t be doing it. So everything has fallen into place and our week looks set. Hope you all enjoyed the warm weather I heard you had at home!!!
