Food and Dining

Eating plant based we were given special treatment in the Michealangelo dining room. Our head waiter David went above and beyond to help us stay on our eating plan. Our Jr waiter Angie was outstanding as well.

Lahaina, Maui

Took an excursion to Hana. The town is not much to speak of. The trip is all about the drive there and back. Long excursion.
