Thanks to a cancelled flight all of us but Mary got to spend an extra night on Maui. I think the reason our flight was cancelled is a bit amusing. On the incoming flight from Portland a child went into the restroom and spent longer than the Dad thought was normal. He got worried and knocked but didn't get an answer so he just ripped the door off to get to his child. I can understand being nervous but the flight attendants do have keys….anyway FTA regulations require a certain number of working toilets so what can you do but put a plane full of people in a hotel for an extra night and book them on the flight the following evening. Lots of people were pretty irate but for me it was just an added bonus. The hotel was the Makena Golf Resort which is right on the beach, has beautiful rooms, and we got to keep our rooms until time to go to the airport the next night…Perfect!
Johnny read about the resort and learned that most of the shark attacks on Maui happen off the Makena beach so no one was too stoked to get in the water. How did we spend the afternoon? Well, Mary gave her Dad a boomerang for Christmas and we tried it out. I mostly stood in the background and sang, "My boomerang won't come back….." which was true for awhile. Eventually they all got the hang of it though!
I don't know why all the shots of Matt are blurry….must be his lighting fast speed!
Just another day in paradise!
