    Jeff and I periodically visit Maui when our diving coach friend Dennis hosts a meet. Dennis usually lets us stay at his second home, and he usually lends us one of his card to use, so these weekend trips are very affordable for us!

    Jeff spent most of Saturday at a diving competition. I spent most of the day wandering around Kīhei. It was an unusually clear day and I could see the top of Haleakalā.

    Jeff and I wandered around some of the historical sights around Lāhainā. We visited the Wo Hing Museum, which documents the lives of Chinese immigrants. After that, we made our way to the Jodo Mission which features a pagoda and a large Buddha statue. It was really hot that day.Read more
