Back to reality. Again.
Good-bye Maui sunsets over Kahoolawe and pretty Kea Lani..
Good-bye Katherine and John.. well, until tomorrow or maybe Weds.
Good-bye, Earthfu#!#r 4000 that we kind of got used to..
The last day on Maui was very mellow. I commandeered a lounge on the Four Seasons beach with the last book in the Twilight series. I know, I'm not 13. They gave me an umbrella. They brought me ice water and watermelon periodically. It was not a bad day for me. Then evening rolled around and we hit the Taste of Wailea on the golf course for blueberry ginger martinis. And probably some food, I think, but you can tell what stood out here. After the eating (drinking), Katherine, John, and I wandered down to watch Paper Love on the big screen. It was a mock-umentary with Michael Cera. I loved it. But I am a sucker for diarama scenes, kind of like when Sponge Bob and Patrick go on land and SB is a dish sponge on a stick.
The Taste of Wailea was a good argument for why I carry emergency tights and an emergency bikini in my bag at all times. I refer to the bikini as my bag-kini. It turned out to be really windy up on the golf course. What started out as a dress became a top.. the tights were enablers, in a way.
Whine as I may, nothing beats coming back to this:
And my little boys, who are less inclined to smile pretty for the camera.
Now that I'm back to stay, it's time to consider training. K and I decided that July 1 is Day 1 of marathon training. My bike is still in Wisconsin, or at least I think it is. The North Shore Summer Swim Series starts Saturday. I'm going to wing it. Practice is over-rated.
Your "reality" is still pretty rockin'. Fun weekend... please tell Katherine that I'm available to sub as a BFF if you're ever out of commission.
ReplyDeleteHow could you not be happy to come home to a cute face like that... So sweet.
ReplyDeleteShe is just a doll. :o) Welcome back.
ReplyDeletewho doesn't carry emergency tights and bikini?
ReplyDeleteHow adroable! Yeah to marathon training that is starting on CANADA DAY:)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your the home life!
I love those scenes in Sponge Bob, too. (And it has been well established that I am a 13 year old boy at heart.) I love the name of your rental car - I will be using that in the future (just not around my kids.) Enjoy the swim training and the summer time with all the super cute kiddos.
ReplyDeleteLove tights! And hey, I almost bought that same dress at Sports Basement! (the orange and yellow one) but you wear it much better.
ReplyDeleteI got a plan, take another vacation to Kona this weekend and race the Kona half or full with me! Forget training, use it to prep for Honolulu 26.2!!
