Aloha!!!

Well, we are back on the mainland after what was one of the most amazing vacations I have ever had!!  Blake and I both agreed that it came in a close 2nd, only to our honeymoon!  We had the most amazing time in Maui!!  I think if I would have let him, Blake would have stayed forever!  We stayed at the most gorgeous resort, The Ritz Carlton Kapalua.  They just finished a $160 million renovation and it was spectacular!  We had lot of fun activities planned throughout the trip and spent a lot of quality time at the pool and beach.  Here are a bunch of pictures with the details of what we did while we were there...

This was the view from our room early in the morning...our first night/morning we didn't sleep much- woke up at 4 am Hawaii time (which is 10 am in Atlanta)

At the beach...

Spa Day!!  We had a couples massage in a private cabana

The Old Lahaina Luau

On our way to the pool... beautiful hotel grounds

Dinner at Mama's Fishhouse... fantastic food - I had the Mahi Mahi stuffed with crab and lobster!  Whoa!

Watching the sun rise from 10,000 feet.  This was about 6 am on top of volcano (Mt. Haleakala)

It was FREEZING cold!!!  40 degrees outside with 30 mph winds!  But definitely worth it.  We are about to hop on some bikes and ride 30 miles down the volcano!  Best part of the trip!

Dinner at Kimo's.... another favorite!

Blake played golf on the Kapalua Bay Course... I rode in the golf cart and took pictures




Last day on the beach...


Dinner at the Plantation House
