Being without a car in Kahului is not the same as being without a car in
Waikiki and that's a good thing. I appreciate the down time. I spent some
of the morning catching up just a little on this journal and some of it
just looking over this motel where I've spent very little time. My home on
Maui isn't quite as classy as that place I had on Oahu but the
Maui Seaside Hotel is certainly alright.
My room is quite comfortable and there is a
nice pool and views of the harbor. I tried
Tante's,
the attached restaurant, for the first time today and was impressed. I've
had French toast made with banana bread before and thought I knew what I
was getting but
this version included fresh
bananas and would probably make a good dessert.
I spent the afternoon in a nearby sports bar watching basketball. Games
deciding the finalists in the NCAA Tournament were played today. Back home
the first game started at 6:00 PM. Here it started at noon. I arrived at
the
Ale House a
little before tip off and enjoyed the view in the second picture until
half time of the second game. I watched the end of that game in my room.
My picks won both games and it looks like I might win some pool money this
year. You know what they say about blind squirrels.
