The Balancing Act: Maui Part 2

Back again to share more about our time in Maui. I had read on a blog about this local breakfast spot. As soon as I read best cinnamon buns they'd ever had, I was hooked! I mean come on, who can pass on cinnamon buns! It was a short drive from our resort. It was a very small spot with a very long line.

I have no idea what Nick got and excuse the camera cord. It looks delicious though. I'm guessing it was some spicy sausage and egg mix.

We split a cinnamon bun (and by split I mean Nick got to have one bite)

Once back at the resort, we headed to the pool/beach area. Nick likes the pool and I liked the beach. We switched between the two. We decided to take out the kayaks and explore the cove around the resort. As we are out on the water, Nick hesitantly says "Erin what is that?" His first thought was a person floating in the water. I started to tell him "it's just the top of a rock," but realized there were no rocks out this far. It didn't take us much longer to realize it was a sea turtle. As soon as we saw the first one, we immediately recognized a bunch more floating around. We paddled back into shore, I ran to grab my camera, and we booked it back out.

There were a number of sea turtles swimming around. They floated quite close to us and would pop their heads up to breathe.

Nick's favorite picture: "That's my butt and that's a sea turtle."

Looking back at our resort.

Earlier in the week, we ate at a cafe at our resort. We saw the special dessert they offered after stuffing ourselves to the brim! Instead of making ourselves miserable, we vowed to come back! That night we returned for a light dinner and a big dessert. We also busted into our champagne!
