Maui

Thanks to Berkeley CE, Julie and Eric got to go to Maui for the first time. With temptures in the upper 70's and lower 80's, it was very easy for us to forget about the gloomy weather of SF. With a great group booking rate, Julie and Eric got a ocean front room which has a veiw of the beautiful Maui sunset in the afternoon ( and occasional whale sightings per our hotel room neighbor).



Although in paradise, Eric's work kept him away from getting a nice tan. What seems to be a cool toy when he first started working ( the blackberry), soon became what interrupted our vacation. At times Julie wish she can "accidentally" take the blackberry for a nice swim ^_^

We did, however, manage to see the beautiful sunset at Haleakala ( too tired to get up to see the sunrise as recommended by the tour book).






Had some pupu at the Pupu Lounge.

And we even got to swim with turtles on the last day of our vacation *^^* which made the trip all worth it.




I guess we will have to go back again when Eric doesn't have a crazy work deadline.
