Imagine our surprise and good fortune when we called at almost the last minute and the Westin Maui Vacation Condos had a two bedroom unit free over Easter week-end! We had not planned on going to Hawaii this year, but since we had already paid the maintenance fees and they wouldn't let us trade the condo for points this year, we decided to see if Spring Break had any available condos! Janie decided that even though it was the reading days before finals, she could study at the pool in Maui as just as well as at the library on Campus. (Hmm---difficult choice, I think!) So we packed our bags and flew on Delta's direct flight to Maui on April 10th. The beauty, the warm, moist air, the usually gentle breezes, pineapple, guava drinks, NO SNOW OR FREEZING TEMPERATURES, sunsets and the laid-back pace, made it truly a relaxing paradise for us!
We have favorite things that we love to do while in Maui. Some of these include going out to dinner, relaxing at the pool for hours with a cooler of drinks, books, and Scrabble, going to Haagen Daz in Whaler's village for ice cream and going to see the Olivine Pools. Because of the weather this time, we didn't make the Olivine pool trek and we didn't go to the top of Haaleakala because the volcano was "socked-in" with clouds. We did, however, go on a whale watch which
we hadn't done for years because we are usually in Hawaii in June when the whales have gone.
