Maui, Hawaii {Day 2}

We woke up this morning determined to make it to the Gazebo restaurant by 7am so that we would be among the first seated for breakfast when they opened at 7:30am. 

It was fun that this popped up in my Facebook feed just last week.  Going 2,563 days without the Gazebo is too long!


Not much has changed – which is great!


We were a little concerned that it would be rainy this morning but it held off so we enjoyed a beautiful breakfast overlooking the ocean and watching the whales jumping in the distance. I ordered my favorite white chocolate macadamia pancakes and it was just as delicious as I remembered. 


Shortly after we got back to our hotel it started dumping rain so we stayed in the room hoping to wait it out. Justin took a short nap. When the weather cleared we headed out on a long walk along the Kaanapali Beach with Ululani’s shaved ice as our destination. They have a small little stand at one of the resorts that is only open limited hours.  Turns out it costs a little bit more than the main location but that didn’t deter us and we enjoyed our second shaved ice with three new flavors to try. 


I’ve been taking notes on the flavors that we try and ranking them with the hope that by our last day we will have found our favorite flavors and can end the vacation enjoying only the best. 

We went back to Lahaina tonight for dinner at Cool Cat Cafe for some yummy sandwiches and fries afterwhich we stopped at Safeway to pick up the macadamia ice cream that they use at Ululani’s so that we could enjoy it on our own throughout the week.


We have a full kitchen in our room, however we’ve opted to eat out for most meals since it’s just the two of us.  Our room would be an ideal configuration for having our family here though – the kitchen is fully equipped and we have so much space. Later this evening we went down to the resort fitness center and did our first ever peloton cycling workout together. We only did the 20 minute beginner course but it was a good little workout.
