Aloha, all! Here are a few shots from our recent vacation for anyone who'd like to take a look.

Hey, did you know that United serves Trader Vic Mai Tais on their Hawai'i flights?

Our hotel on Maui was on the west coast on Ka'anapali Beach, overlooking the islands of Lana'i and Moloka'i. There were plenty of cool touches all around the grounds -

These are carvings from one of the canoes they have outside the front entrance.

There is a great courtyard with a tiki bar, small grill and hula stage, as well as this big guy overlooking it all...

They have their own mugs at the bar!

Their menu...

Some shots from the Old Lahaina Luau -

Welcome mai tais...

Baz and I and our little grass shack -

Performers...

Every night at one of the hotels nearby, there's a sunset cliff diving ritual.

Also in Lahaina is the Hale Kahiko, a little open air museum of sorts right smack in a parking lot!

One of our biggest highlights of the Maui trip was lunch at Mama's Fish House. We almost had to sell our kidneys to afford it, but wow, was it sooooo worth it! Gorgeous place, lots of tiki touches, and food that was just amazingly good.

You know you're in for something special when you see the entry...

The appetizers, drinks and lunch were terrific, but the piéce de résistance was dessert - The Black Pearl...

We were in Maui over Halloween, so here's a selection of shots from here and there that were in the spirit...

The Keiki Parade on Front Street -

Next stop, Kaua'i.
