Maui

I landed in Hawaii completely exhausted, and pretty sure I was about get sick (after going to Powell/Vegas/OSL, and then heading straight to Hawaii early Monday morning with no breaks in between).  I was heading into two days on Oahu with Stacey and friends, and then 5 days on Maui in a vacation rental with 9 people to celebrate Phuong and Huy's 5 year wedding anniversary. 

!!  Crazy, but so much fun.


Time on Oahu with Stacey was sweet and chill.  I felt like I got to relax and recover a bit -- but, that we also got some quality time:

Lunch, beach, shave ice with Cara
Dinner at Monkey Pod
Stand up paddle boarding in Waikiki
Lunch with Mike and Abigail
Ant-Man and the Wasp


Then, I was off to Maui to celebrate Phuong and Huy's 5 year anniversary!  I didn't know most of the people in the condo, but they were all lovely and it was really fun staying together.  The celebration was beautiful and delightful, and just a wonderful night all around.  I felt so honored to be a part of it.
