Thursday

We left our house this morning along with the girls on their way to school. We ended up walking out to Fort Weaver Rd in order to catch TheBus to the airport because Mary Lou didn't feel comfortable driving us to the airport. She didn't think she'd be able to find her way back. The bus ride was interesting and took me back to when we first lived on the island and had no car. We arrived at the Kahului, Maui airport in mid-morning. We picked up the rental car and drove around the central northern part of the island waiting for Kai's to arrive. I does seem smaller over here. More laid back and WAY less traffic. When the Kai's arrived, we picked them up from the airport, grabbed 2 dozen Krispy Kreme's (only available on Maui) and went to the condo. It is GORGEOUS and only steps from the ocean. The best part about it is that it is FREE!!! Kauwe's dad works for Budget Rental and I guess it's the company place or something like that. There is a video tour of it below.

For dinner we went to Kauwe's Aunty's house in Lahaina which is near where we are staying. It was fun to visit with their family and meet some of his cousins. They were very hospitable.
