Resort Day

One of the days in Maui we spent the day doing activities that were at the Resort.

Each of the kids selected activities and classes that they were interested in. Danny wanted to do the "Adopt a Cuddly One" class most of all. So first thing in the morning we went to see what it was all about. It turned out to be a Build-A-Bear type activity. He named his new buddy Churro.

Next, the rest of the family came down to the lobby for the Koi Fish Feeding Frenzy. It turned out that we went to the wrong side of the resort and missed them handing out the food. So we just put our hand toward the water, as if we had food, and the Koi all came swarming.

Our next Resort Day activity was the magic show. The kids enjoyed many of the tricks, including the magician holding a half full cup of water upside down, without the water falling out.

Ryan got chosen as an assistant along with this other Resort guest (who's name happened to be Anna, the name of Ryan's kindergarten girlfriend back home). The magician ended up linking them by the pinkies with a sort of mini handcuff...or I guess, pinkie-cuff in this situation. :)

Once Ryan and Lydia saw Danny's Cuddly One, they insisted that they have one, too. We knew that we were going to by one nice souvenir for each of the kids, so they each agreed that a new stuffed animal made in Maui, would be their choice.

Putting on the clothes. Ryan chose a black bear with an Astronaut suit. Lydia chose a pink unicorn with a fairy outfit.

After the morning activities we spent some time at the pool. Popsicles...

and lounging in the shade. Nice glasses Danny!

All of the kids had expressed interest in doing the Hula Lessons later in the afternoon. As it turned out the only one willing to try it with Kayla was Nathan.

One of the reasons we brought our niece, Kayla, along with us was so that Mike and I could enjoy a couple of evenings out. After our Resort Day we hooked the kids up with dinner in the condo and headed out to Whaler's Village. This is the view from our table at Lelani's. The sunsets are amazing.
