Day 2

We were up early again this morning....that seems to be the case when you're asleep by 9:00.  Kelly managed to fall asleep again while I worked on my first blog.  Good system I think. After getting dressed we grabbed coffees from Starbucks in the lobby and walked north along the beach to the Sheraton. The weather is gorgeous and sunny with not a cloud in the sky but the surf is still huge!  Four brave souls were snorkeling at Black Rock bobbing around like corks but we figured calmer waters would be better for us.  We headed back to the resort as today we had a cabana reserved for the day.  When i called a month ago to make the reservation the man on the phone told me he reserved the best cabana by the adult pool for us...I think he was right but you can see for yourselves....

We had a great day..very relaxing.  There was poolside service which we took advantage of but also refilled our glasses several times from the fridge in our room.  We also had our picture taken later in the day by the resort photographer...a 4x6 print is included in the resort fees. We were told that we could use the cabana until 10:00 but when we got back after our pictures we were in full sun and it was hot! We lasted a couple more hours but by then we were pretty much cooked so headed back to our room.  I wanted to eat at The Hula Grill so we cleaned up and headed out again. It was only 5:00 and too early to eat so we decided to walk north along Kaanapali Beach.  Lots of locals surfing and boogie boarding in the huge surf.

I know I haven't been to that many beaches in the world but there cant be too many that rival the true beauty of Kaanapali Beach!  We were starting to get hungry so figured it was time to head back towards Whaler's Village and the Hula Grill...but found ourselves stopping to watch the
sunset...

Made our way to Hula Grill and sat in The Beach Bar enjoying a great meal with good music and lots of people watching....and so ends day two on Maui...tomorrow we change lodging and head to our condo at The Kuleana in Kahana for the next phase of our trip.
