2018 Hawaii (Day 1--Flights/Maui)


 Last month(November 2018), Mike and I flew to Hawaii for a quick vacation, courtesy of his employer.


  
We barely made our flight from SLC, had a short layover in Seattle, then flew on to Maui.



 As always, I was air sick. After feeling so yucky and enduring such a long flight, we were both happy to finally arrive in Paradise.


Unfortunately, the sun was beginning to set by the time we arrived. After a quick stop at Costco and almost an hour drive to our hotel, it was dark. We weren't expecting it to get dark so early!


When we arrived at our hotel, we checked in dropped off our stuff before heading out for dinner.






 We realized that there weren't many dining options near our hotel, so we headed back to Lahaina (about 20 minutes away) for dinner and settled on eating at Aloha Mixed Plate. It was a fun place, but we wished we had arrived earlier so we could have enjoyed the view of the sun setting over the ocean.


 The food was pretty good. I ordered an Asian salad and Mike had a pulled pork sandwich.



For dessert, we ordered a chocolate creme brûlée.


 By the time we finished dinner, we were beat, so we went back to the hotel and jumped in bed.
