Greg and Tammy 10 year anniversary!!, Went to Napili Bay in the morning for snorkeling (had to use the gear that Snorkel Bob's raped us with), lots of great fish to see, really fun snorkeling, got Tom and Laura all packed up and headed to Lahaina for Ulani's Shaved Ice one last time together!, Laura and Tom left from Lahaina for airport, Greg and Tam drove to Ka'anapali to board sunset cruise for anniversary, great cruise, drove right by cruise ship and people were more interested in the ship than the sunset on the other side of the boat, ate dinner at Lelani's on the beach. Best anniversary EVER!!!

Haleakala National Park (and our 23 mile bike down it)
May 9
Biking Down Haleakala Crater!, Took van up the crater to the very top at 10,000 feet, above the clouds, drove down to 6500 ft where the guide dropped us off and we biked 23 miles down the mountain, through the clouds (another dream of LJ's. She was sad they weren't "thicker". Reminded her Care Bears was not reality TV.), bikes were horrible, one gear, one "big" up hill, Tam got stuck and had to walk up, stopped in small town to try the donuts and pastries at a local place and shop for a minute, drove back to Napili and got stuck in traffic, Greg forgot patience pants, changed quickly and left within 20 minutes to watch "Ulalena", Vene got us a sweet deal on tix, great show about Maui history and culture, Karin and Steve (on honeymoon) met us there and then we all ate together at Aloha Mixed Plate, cute restaurant off of beach where we ate off a surf board surrounded by tiki torches!
Tom and Laura got creative with our lunches and packed them in the drawer or our fridge! Pretty smart, huh? Everything was iced and very tasty!
