Aloha and Happy Halloween
I'm here in Kihei, Maui...yes, Hawaii. We arrived on Saturday and have done nothing but eat it seems. We have discovered this place called Sansei--very good food. There is an early bird special and a late night special, overall the prices are pretty good considering we're in Hawaii and that Sansei primarily serves sushi. Weather has been in the upper 80s, low 90s kind of thing. Makes me glad that we're here and not back in Seattle right now. I read that there are wind storms and a major cold front in Seattle. Boo. Speaking of boo we were in Lahaina today for the big Halloween parade. We stayed long enough to eat more and watch the Kids Parade. There is an Adult Parade that apparently in the past is a lot like Mardi Gras, but we didn't stay long enough for it. Yesterday we went to the famous Lahaina Luau which was very cool. You would forget that you were at a luau until you heard the crash of the ocean waves.
Right now I'm doing some laundry in the condo's tiny washing machine. It is one of those stacking units where the washing basin is about as big as my carry-on luggage. Good times. :) We treated ourselves to First Class air fare on Hawaiian Airlines--VERY nice. It was so worth the upgrade. I highly recommend it as the food was outstanding (can you believe that we got full with airline food that tasted good?) the service of course was unbeatable. It made the 5 hour and 40 minute flight go by a LOT faster.
Tomorrow we are planning on scoping out some good places for snorkeling. After that who knows. I have already visited Hilo Hattie and got myself a new pineapple dress. Maybe we will eat more because that is apparently all you do in Hawaii. I am really looking forward to going to the beach (finally!).
We broke down and bought some of these Crocs shoes. I wish they didn't look so butt ugly or else I'd wear them to work. Speaking of work you know I had over 500 emails in my box (I was only checking it for junk mail, that is all)??!! And it is only Wednesday! You are probably wondering what I have been doing besides Hawaii, eating, checking junk mail...last weekend I traveled to Los Angeles to visit Heather (hi Heather) and we saw.....RANDY JACKSON. Yes, we were eating at this burger joint called The Habit and in walks Randy Jackson -- judge from American Idol -- and his family and they were looking all Hollywood like that.
Ok, back to some laundry I suppose. And eating in Hawaii.

Jonell!
Sansei is in Kapalua, no? That's where Blake and I got married in August. My folks have a house in that area. LOVE that place. They have fun Karaoke too!
