Well this morning Madalyn and I are gonna do something that we've never done before.
That's were gonna get on a boat go out to the middle of the ocean into a crater and
we're going to snorkel. So we're heading over to the boat right now and we've really been
looking forward to this. This is one of the big activities that we're going to do on this trip
and I'm pretty excited. Well I am on board the Calypso.
I've got my reef safe sunscreen on, it's kind of like a white chalk but uh behind me is Maui and we
are probably a half hour away from Molokini Crater, which is where we're heading first
and the water temperature day like 75 degrees
they said this channel is basically lake like conditions, so
we picked the perfect day by chance and we're pretty excited to get out there and do this.
There's a very rare monk seal here today which is pretty exciting um
area
This is crazy!
Well here we are in the crater.
Snorkeling was tons of fun. Am I good? You're free to fly. Alrighty
Well we had about an awesome hour and a half here in the Molokini Crater
and uh now we're gonna head into an area called Turtle Town. Supposed to be a lot of sea turtles
over there. Got to see the seal here that was really cool and uh what an experience.
This is the back side of Molokini Crater. It was once used as a military test site
that's how good the conditions are today.
We are in turtle town swimming with these sea turtles you've seen so many it is
amazing it's great they've been swimming right underneath us it's it's incredible.
Wow what a great experience in turtle town so many turtles. I could have done that all day
we're back on the boat we got a ton of fun and uh we're gonna keep rolling here and
now he wants to get back on land. It's our uh last full day here and
I could have stayed in turtle town all day because that was unreal best experience so far
after an incredible morning of snorkeling we have worked up a hunger so we're heading
over back to Lahaina. We're gonna get some ice cream, some craft beer and some dinner
this is our last night in Maui and
it's gonna be hard to leave. We have so much to look forward to we're going on to the Big Island,
we're going to Oahu but Maui has set the bar high for our first stop in Hawaii.
So tonight in Maui we wanted to go a little more low key,
so we went to a fish market that also serves hot food. I got a ono burger it's 100
ground ono which is another fish I haven't tried yet excited to try it
in a burger form. Madalyn got two tacos she got a baja fish taco and a kahlua pork taco
they both look really good and we're gonna kind of split everything so we're looking forward to it.
Alright I'm gonna dig right into the ono burger it's got lettuce it's got sauce on
it got some grilled onions on the bottom oh yeah looks kind of like a turkey burger
it's
I like it i think this might not be my last one
Alright more taco
that was very good there's a lot of pork on here we're shredded
and I thought we were going to eat a lot of pork here in Hawaii
but you really haven't I'm really glad that I opted for this tonight
Super crispy pico and then the sauce
came on the side here it's gonna go I'm not sure what it is but the sauces have been on point since
we've been in Hawaii. I have to say we haven't had a fried fish taco yet so mixing it up again.
This is a great spot.
Well the fish market was absolutely delicious
love the tacos the ono burger was a huge hit it's gonna be tough to top.
Well you know that we absolutely love visiting local independent owned craft breweries.
It's the red sand amber which I'm guessing is a nod to Haleakala
national park up in that crater you got a lot of red we'll see how it is.
So this baby beach blonde ale
It goes down really really easy and it's very refreshing
I haven't picked up surfing yet but I can envision a long day of
thing out on the water which we were out on the water today we were circling not quite as cool
as surfing but you know we saw some turtles so that was fun but this goes down easily.
We wish they'd bottle that up and send it back to the mainland.
We are at ululanis and we are getting shaved ice. We got coconut guava and passion fruit
and it also has macadamia nut ice cream on the bottom. First shaved ice in Hawaii.
I'm gonna get all the flavors go right in
when you get a Ital er Hawaiian ice at home it's like chunky it's got a very syrupy topping to it.
