Heather, Ellis and I were fortunate enough to visit Maui in February for Ellis' first time experience with the Islands, and to use some of Heather's remaining time before she went back to work for a family vacation. We had a great time, Ellis realized for the first time that the guy that hangs around mornings and evenings (who likes to make funny noises) is his father. Overall we really bonded as a family and did a great job of eating our weight in strawberry papayas. Also, Ellis caught his first wave, snorkeled Molokini, swam with the sea turtles, and even found time to bike down the Haleakala Crater. Amazing the stamina on this 4 1/2 month old! We were also fortunate enough to see our amazing friends Danny and Mari Paquette. They did not pay us to say this, but please visit the Tiki Lounge Restaurant whenever you are in the Kihei Area. Enjoy the photos. Mahalo. George and Heather and Ellis
