Why-oh-why do I go on vacation in November?! Less than 10 hours ago this was my view. Now I'm home and just waded through several inches of fresh snow to get to my front door. The abrupt change in temperature and weather aren't such a big deal actually. It's when I realize that I still have several more months of the snow that I start to think my timing wasn't the best. Shoulda gone in January. :) But it was a great vacation so I can't actually complain at all. Here are some of the things we saw and did…
That's the fun jeep we rented to explore Maui. If you look straight out from the guard rail toward the water you'll see a faint rainbow out there. Love the very red dirt too.
You'll probably just have to take my word for it because it was almost impossible to get photos of things just under the surface of the water – but there were a lot of turtles! This was right outside of our condo. Fun to see them every day…there must have been about 15 turtles that lived right in that area.
The flowers and plants are so beautiful and different from what I'm used to seeing too.
I almost brought this piece of coral back with me, but decided that wasn't a very good plan. Better to leave it for others to enjoy…
We played in the sand at a beach that was pretty near where we were staying…
And happened to see this little guy carrying part of some kind of seed…
Finally, sorry to jump from a bug photo to a food photo…but having a condo while we were there was nice because we had a kitchen to cook dinner. Honestly, at home I don't normally cook so I was pretty proud of this meal…
Ok, time to wind down and get some sleep. I am glad to be home, but I'll be missing Maui until I can visit again.
