The Secret Trail of Doom

Bo, his best bud, Ashton, and I knocked out a monster hike today called the Secret Trail of Doom. We climbed from Corriganville Park to the top of Rocky Peak(900 feet elevation gain), in a few short miles, then back down. The tunnel seen in a few of the pictures is a wildlife corridor and goes under the 118 freeway. Great day.












Zeke Hoopin!

Zeke scored the first points for his team this morning, but unfortunately, they lost another one. Zeke "packed" three shots and played solid on the boards.

More Maui

For dinner one night, we found an open air bar near Kihei, called Lulu's. Decor was interesting(see Giant Elvis Tiki below), and they had good burgers, beer and pool. Bonus: live music by a guy doing Jimmy Buffett covers. I love it when a plan comes together.

On the last day, it rained a little, so we took the opportunity to visit the Maui Ocean Center. Cool little aquarium.




Beautiful sunset caught in silhouette.






Zeke and Bo wanted to get a shot with our local newspaper, The Acorn. Then more beach time.

Maui Snorkeling!

We didn't get too many underwater shots, but the snorkeling was outstanding. We saw turtles, eels, and a variety of fish including humuhumunukunukuapua'a, the unofficial State Fish of Hawaii, and our kids favorite word for the week.

But the Honu, or turtles, were our favorites companions.



This is Bo swimming with a turtle in about 30' of water.



Maui Zip Lining

While we were in Maui, Mack, Zeke and Andrea went up Mount Hock-A-Loogie for some Zip lining. They said it was a blast.

TAKEOFF!

IN FLIGHT!

LANDING!

ALL SMILES!
