Kathy & I just got back from a great trip to Maui — we spent 6 days on the island, and had a great time. (I’ll post a link to some pictures in a bit.) Among other things, we enjoyed the Road to Hana, seeing the crater of Haleakala, and eating at Mama’s Fish House (awesome). The weather was terrific — and now that we’re back in California it seems cold all the time. 
Read a ton of books — mostly popcorn fiction type stuff — I’ll post them over the next few days.
One of the strangest feelings there was being 6 hours behind East Coast time — you really feel like by the time you’re up, had breakfast and are starting your day that most of America’s news has already happened. Weird.
Anyway, fun trip — glad we got a chance to do it.
(Incidentally, we borrowed a great guide book from Mike Schroepfer: Maui Revealed, by Andrew Doughty & Harriett Friedman — indispensable.)
