My little sister flew in from Lake Tahoe yesterday. Her first Maui stop? Starbucks.
{just got lei'd, hanging onto a strawberry smoothie}
On our way back home, the Green Monster overheated.

On a side note: I had the best experience with 808 Towing. Peter was prompt and professional, and pleasant to hang out with on our drive back to Lahaina. He was also the same tow truck driver that I saw on my way to the airport that was fishing a white pickup truck from out of the ocean at Olowalu. Seriously, click on the link. You'll want to see the photos attached to the Maui News article.
After getting home, Hana and I took showers and then walked down to Front Street for a late lunch and drinks on the water at Kimo's.

And after our rough day, I decided to go big on dairy. We ordered a slice of Peanut Butter Hula Pie: a huge wedge of peanut butter ice cream dotted with Reese's peanut butter cups, laced with a fudge swirl on an Oreo cookie crust, topped with hot fudge and whipped cream.
I had a tummy ache afterwards, but it was totally worth it.
Hana and I toured Front Street, and then headed back up the hill. On our way up, Bryan came down to shuttle us back up to the top on the Vespa.

When we got home, we got to introduce Hana to T-Bone, and then we had a game night (Sorry and Skip Bo).
Bryan and I got up early this morning to take the Geen Monster to the mechanic, we rented a new car while mine is out of commission getting repaired (another Toyota Corolla), and now we are getting ready for lunch and the beach! Yeehaw!!
PS: the best part of having to rent a car while yours is out of order? The air conditioning!!
