Wowee, Maui - week 030

Aloha friends and family,
On Sunday we boarded the Aloha jet for Kahalui, Hawaii.  Pete, Ellen, Melissa and Emily headed off to the Marriott Ocean Club in Ka'anapali on the West Coast of Maui Island.  After settling in, we headed off to the huge pool and relaxed.  During the week we swam in the ocean, played water volleyball, enjoyed the sun, walked the mile long beach, shopped, ate, watched a video, snorkeled on the Molokini "Island", watched the whales, toured the new timeshare models, played on the waterslide, took island drives, took pictures and just plain relaxed.  You could enjoy a 7-day trial with an included rental car for about $700.00.  Email us, if you like and we will submit your name, address and phone number to Marriott.  Besides the room and car, you will need round trip tickets and food.  While it is not cheap, it is an amazingly beautiful place to vacation. You must schedule a 2-hour timeshare tour.  But they are not pushy and it is one of the best things we have ever done.  We have been to Hawaii four different weeks and every week is as good as the first.

See for yourself!  These are photos of the resort, Marriott's Ocean Club on Ka'anapali Beach.


The girls look great in Hawaii.


Molokini was a crescent-shaped "venting cone" for the Haleakala volcano.  This was on our trip to Molokini.


Snorkeling at Molokini was great.  Below Melissa is holding a Pencil Lead Urchin.


The whale sightings were phenomenal as well.


This humpback whale was up close and personal!


There are a lot of different ways to enjoy yourself here.




Ellen and Pete drove the narrow road around the Northwest section of Maui.  While the road was only as wide as your car, the traffic was two way.




At the end of the road you reach the Iao Valley just west of the city of Kahalui.


Well, that's it for the week.  Rested and relaxed we headed back on the jet to San Diego.  We left our motorhome for repairs.  When they are done, we will, for the third time, head off for the East Coast.  Mahalo for your interest.

Aloha, love, Pete and Ellen
