Hawaii

Aloha! Here are a lot of pictures of my family vacation to Hawaii. We landed into Kahului, Maui around 1030pm so it was quite late by the time we got to our hotel in Kaanapali - it's about 45mns from the airport, west side of Maui Island.

We toured our hotel the next morning. This is the hotel entrance. Aloha on one side...

...and this on the other side.

Here we are!

This is our 'garden view room' - what a bonus it was to see the ocean too!

Our first morning there I had no problem standing on the beach...

...or playing in the sand...

...or even going into the ocean!

I loved it! But that was the only time because after that I had issues with the sand - "oh no, a mess"

There were even fishies for me to watch at our resort!

Enjoying breakfast on the lanai

Pool time fun!

I didn't mind relaxing after a big swim in the pool...

...especially the day mommy & daddy let me watch my DVD! (welcome to the 20th century way of vacationing!)

Family snapshot at the Luau! (as you can tell I'm not big on posing)

My favorite part was the man dancing with the fire.

After breakfast on our last morning there, my parents attempted one last time to get a fun beach pose but I was still being difficult. I didn't like the feel of sand at all.

After checking out of the hotel, we started our day of sight seeing. I fell asleep while my parents took in some sights down west Maui. I woke up when we arrived in Maalaea to see the Maui Ocean Center...

There are lots and lots of fishies to see here!

I loved exploring thru it all!

Do I have tourist written all over?

I was actually the tourist guide - "this way...

...that way!"

There were fishies all around us!

I had no problem going in the tunnel until I reached the glass bottom floor and when I saw a shark I got scared.

I really am in Nemo's World!

After lunch we took in some more sights - or my parents did anyway. I was ready for my afternoon nap. My parents drove down to South Maui...

...and then drove towards Haleakala National Park - a volcano attraction. If you make it to the top, you're approx 10,000ft above sea level but we only made it half way up. I woke up from my nap and my parents knew I wouldn't last much longer in the car. It took almost 2hrs to make it up half way because its a long and windy road up the mountain. On the way down my mummy wasn't feeling well because of all the twists and turns and ended up getting sick when we made it back into Kahului. We had supper before going to the airport to catch our late flight back home - back to reality!
