Good Fun Stuff

Frank had a great idea to have a fire on the beach, or has he calls it a loggafuer sp? (pr. log-uh-foyr) or a fire with friendship, with some beers. We scoped out a couple of beaches and found one on the west side of Maui that had a few trees and we were able to see quite a bit of wood and sticks that was dry as paper. The group consisted of Frank, Mactald (mach-told) and Laurien (lo-reen) of Holland, and Geraldado and Fabritzio of Argentina, and Andreas of Sweden. It was quite a nice time with good friends, drink, a fire, and an almost full moon.

























On a free tour from the hostile we went to see the Haleakala (haw-lay-ah-kah-lah) National Park and took a 2.5 hour hike through a bamboo forest. It was a marvelous site. Also the cool mist was nice after taking a long hot hike, just as I was enjoying the mist it began to downpour and the group was ready to leave. Good thing I was wearing my Tilley hat is very functional and great piece of workmanship. The brim would get more firm the wetter it got. Aaron, one of the guides was very impressed by it after I told him all of it's functions. Check out the link for details.



















This is a picture of Andreas of Sweden, he's a sports nut. Yesterday he went and played tennis all by himself. He even brought his own racquet!






The tour group also went to Red Sand beach. The sand is literally red with black rocks. Got to go this is costing me a fortune.

Are you practicing your Canadian?

Ever since you left the weather has been crappy. Thanks for taking the sun with you. Just leave us here in these cold overcast days, with 30+ MPH winds.

Wish us luck, Friday is the World Beer Cup Awards Dinner.
Cheers,
