I know it’s a bit weird to go on vacation so soon after coming back from Singapore but we planned this vacation last year. Since it was such a crazy time during the first week before I started work, I think it’ll be good just to lay on a beach chair and relax.

The flight was relatively smooth and we arrived in Maui around 11:30am. We picked up our rental car and went to find a place to eat. We asked the Alamo rental car employee for a suggestions and she recommended a place closeby. So we begin our journey.

We tried the specials on their blackboard. We had the Combo #4 which as rice with salad or mac (I chose the mac) and pulled pork, hamburger with onions, teriyaki chicken, and spam.

Ron and I were so stuffed! The place was pretty busy too, lots of people ordering take-out and people were waiting outside. We got there just before 12 so just beat the lunchtime crowd. We also had free-flow iced coffee and tropical iced tea so lunch was about $20 for both of us. We left very satisfied but also very sleepy with food coma.

We went to check-in at our hotel for a nap. We’re staying at the Maui Seaside Hotel tonight before checking into the Marriott Maui Ocean Club tomorrow.

It’s been a nice lazy day.
