Epic Weekend

It's going to be hard to go back to work tonight after the wonderful weekend I just had.

Wednesday morning was spent cleaning up and organizing the house before Bryan and I headed to Wailea to hang out with some of my friends who are visiting the island.

We grabbed lunch on the road:

{Lunch at Maui Tacos.  And yes, I did eat all of this.}

We drove over to Wailea to hang out with the Leslie family at their condo where we were introduced to our new game obsession:

{7 Wonders in action}

The Leslies prepared an amazing dinner for us.  We stayed until after 10 at night, talking and catching up.

Thursday morning was a bit dramatic.  Bryan had woken up early to get ready for his guy trip to Poli Poli for some disc golf, when we were alerted to the fact that a pipe had burst in the house.  The whole household scrambled around for a bit to do some damage control and contact a plumber.  We had to turn the water off to the whole house while we waited.  

We finally found someone who reacted with some urgency (sometimes it can be hard to find emergency help on Maui).  The plumber told us that it would be about 4 hours before he got everything patched up and turned the water on again.

The boys took off for the mountain, and I also headed out of our waterless house.

I met up my girlfriend, Shaina, and we got an early lunch at our favorite joint: Star Noodle.

{Our first course: Ahi Avo prepared in lemon pressed olive oil}

There are no further photos of lunch because I became extremely occupied with eating everything else that came out of the kitchen: Vietnamese Crepe and Fried Noodle Soup (not an actual soup, but incredibly delicious all the same).

After lunch, we came back to Shaina's house where I played with her roommate's dog:

Then we went to Lahaina harbor and took a dingy to Shaina's brother's catamaran that is moored right outside the harbor.

I spent most of the time in the water.

Not a bad way to spend the afternoon.

Later in the evening, I met Bryan on the Other Side to catch the new Tarantino movie at the Mall.

Definitely not my favorite Tarantino movie, but I was happy to finally see it.

As you can see, it was an epic weekend--and now I need a weekend from my weekend!
