21 April 2015 We followed our morning routine of breakfast on the balcony, then down to the beach for some swimming and tanning. Speaking of tanning, by this point in our vacation, I had a wonderful golden brown tan starting—even on my hands and feet—which is something incredible for a pale person like me who …

Welcome to Maui: Day Eight
20 April 2015 We had breakfast on the balcony as per usual. Then Michelle, Raye, and I went down to Snorkel Bob’s—conveniently right across from our hotel—to rent some snorkel gear when it opened at 8am. Our hotel had a small coral reef right in front of it that you could access from Kamaole Beach …
Welcome to Maui: Days Six and Seven
18 April 2015 Waking up at 6:30 am was late for me, but it felt nice to sleep in a little. After getting ready, I made banana macadamia nut pancakes for everyone for breakfast and they were delicious. We went down to the beach again to spend the morning. After lunch, we drove to the …

Welcome to Maui: Day Two

Welcome to Maui: Day One
13 April 2015 Our flight was set to leave Toronto at 12:45 pm from Gate 39 terminal 3 with WestJet Airlines. Around 12:03, we were informed that our plane was still in the hangar (not in Toronto) and we would be on a plane leaving from Gate 29 (thankfully just across from us). Once boarded, …
Dan and Micki take on Hawaii!!!
A few months ago, my sister, Michelle, and I had the most amazing opportunity. We've always wanted to travel and see the world, but life has always had many obstacles stopping us from going. This past April, we travelled to Maui, Hawaii from the 13th-27th. Our aunt and uncle (who live in Vancouver) were going …
