Every trip to Ka’anapali is the best trip, but this one, seriously, was the best of the best. Well, except for the getting there. Nine of us arrived at LAX all ready to hula but our airplane decided not to … Continue reading

Walk with me: Ka’anapali
All in all, August might not be the best time for a trip to Maui. Unless you are fond of crowds. Crowds with lots and lots of children. We certainly did our part. But my philosophy regarding Hawaii is that … Continue reading
Good Morning, Maui.

Please Don’t Come to Ka’anapali.
I’m sure you are witty, charming and attractive, but I don’t want to see you here at Ka’anapali. It’s already too crowded. There is no room for you. I do not want to share pool chairs, the Beach Walk or … Continue reading
