Kapalua

Our first few days in Maui have been incredible! The weather has been perfect and we are having as blast! We bought a one bedroom condo at the Ritz in Kapalua that we rent all the time but we wanted to go check it out. Kapalua is on the complete opposite side of the island where we normally stay. It is much more lush and more natural Hawaii. The Ritz is a beautiful resort. We loved every minute of our vacation on vacation (except for the night - Crew did NOT sleep well!). We feel very fortunate and spoiled!

Running down the grass hill - Crew's favorite thing to do

The beach at the Ritz

The Ritz has the huge tropical pine trees that line the beach.

The pool is actually 3 large pools connected by these water falls.

All the food at the resort was great, but this lunch spot was our favorite. It was right on the beach in a grove of palm trees.

A point on the beach. The large "rocks" in the water behind us are actually sea turtles. There were so many of them. Geoff and Chase swam with them for about 20 minutes and Chase swam up and touched one before Geoff could tell him not to. It is illegal to touch sea turtles in Hawaii - they are endangered. Oops!
