After one layover in Portland, Oregon and 10 hours of traveling, we made it to Maui!! The plane ride wasn't bad, but I was excited when the plane wheels landed in Hawaii so we could start our live here for a year. Walking off the plane into the tropical winds and smell of fresh flowers, yeah.. we were home! We went and got a rental car because we hadn't bought a car before we came because we wanted to wait until we got to Maui. We had no idea where our apartment was but luckily we were able to get our landlords number so she could point us in the right direction. We are so blessed and lucky with the apartment that we have. It is about a 3 minute walk to work, a 2 minute walk to the beach and you can see the ocean from our bedroom window. The apartment came fully furnished, all we needed were our clothes and food.
The night we arrived we walked over to the store to meet our interns and went right to work. The store looks so amazing and we love our interns!
Sarah, Joy, Lexi, Braden, Jennica, Sara and Cole
Braden's parents, Lynn and Leslie, happened to have a trip planned to Maui with some friends before we knew we were going to move there. And they got there a few days after we did to stay for the week. We had a great time, and they were so kind to let us tag along with them. Here are some of our adventures...
Road to Hana
Black Sand Beach
Climbed in the Banyan tree
And played in the waterfall!
And that was only one day off! We are excited to spend time exploring the island and making memories.
