Day Two In Maui (a.k.a. paradise)

After our stellar first evening in Maui, we were excited to start exploring. First on the agenda: a nice morning walk to a farmers' market down the street for breakfast. Fresh pineapple, some Greek yogurt, and coffee hit the spot; especially since there was a great park right across the street on the beach :)




The market

With our hunger satisfied, we set out for the nearby town of Lahaina to do a little shopping… I needed flip-flops! It was fun checking out some of the shops on the main street, and I found some good flippies that were super comphy. Time for lunch…



Koa's was great- our table was on a porch over the ocean


The food was really good (we had thai lettuce wraps 
with fresh mahi-mahi), our service was great, and so were our drinks ;)


Good day so far! We did a little more exploring in Lahaina, 
and then decided to go on a road trip to Paia for dinner that evening


Made it! Vince showed me the building he used to live in here, we
did a little walking around town, and then it was time for dinner. We
headed to Flatbread Pizza Co (good recommendation by one of
my co-workers). Great atmosphere, fresh food, and good values.

Cool Hawaiian decor

They were a lot of fun to listen to- kind of a cross between bluegrass 
and country- and we ended up downloading their album later :)



…sampling the indigenous beverages… Kona Brewing Koko Brown- mmm!


Needless to say, Day Two was pretty amazing, and that was just the beginning :)
