Having a fabulous, magical time is a lot of pressure. And, hey, this is our 20th anniversary trip. It has to be epic, right?
So, we were sitting at the Cool Cat Cafe, sharing fries and a chocolate shake...and we were having the time-honored conversation:
What do you want to do?
I'm up for anything...what do you want to do?
We were getting nowhere, fast. So we decided to type what we wanted to do...and then send it to each other over text and the exact same time.
Results?
Nothing....please, for the love....can we do NOTHING?
We both laughed and we went to pick up our dirty clothes and hung out at the laundromat.
Then we went and saw a movie. Yes, we can watch a movie whenever we want in Kansas...but we just needed to chill a bit. The Road to Hana took a lot out of us.
And besides...tonight was the Old Lahaina Luau!
With cute ladies playing string bass and ukulele
Free tropical drinks (kid's version, please)
Beautiful fresh flower leis
Gorgeous beachside location
An authentic roasted pig!
And SOOOO much dancing. Maybe too much dancing. After 15 or so numbers, we snuck out early. That's one of the nice things about being married for 20 years. We don't feel the need to stick it out when we're both ready to go.
The food was fun and the experience was one I am glad we didn't miss, but I don' think we'd go again. We'd rather pick a yummy meal at Nalu's, grab some shave ice at Ululani's and go dig in to our cinnamon roll we wisely purchased and Kihei Cafe.
Besides....the sunsets are the real show.
And they are completely free!
