In a nutshell

My time in Maui (thus far) has included:

-2 trips to the beach (complete with annoying sand everywhere and a sunset)




-8 hikes/activities to various lookouts/cool things. Waterfall pools were swam in, majestic sights were seen, creepy people were avoided, pesky mosquitos were permanently disabled.



Swimming at Twin Falls

At the Nakalele Blowhole

Solo hike on Kapilau Ridge

Watching the sunset on top of Haleakala with Mandy. So cold!

Solo (and very damp) hike in the Redwood Forest

Some redwoods

Kiddos and me in one of the Olinda pine forest hike caves

-16 dinners were enjoyed in the company of those I love. And there are no pictures because who does that??

Those I love...but not the guy in blue shorts...or the gal with the weird skirt...

-4 kiddos were totally awesome troopers.

Caleb's expression cracks me up!

-5 pounds were gained (with the help of Costa Rica), most likely connected to the 16 enjoyed dinners...

-1 awesome idea was hatched involving a tattoo and 5 family members.

-13 episodes of Lie to Me were watched by Paul, Mandy, and myself (actually, Paul only watched 10).

-2 legs were bruised and 1 toenail will most likely fall off in a couple of days... (you don't need to see a picture of that).

-1 squirmy centipede fell from the ceiling onto the pillow on my lap.

You can't squirm when you're dead, mwuhahahaha!


...And 2.5 days are left of my fantastic vacation to visit my brother and his family in Hawaii...

Who knows what numerical greatness they will hold....?
