Since Silver_Fangs was still throwing up and coughing, I took her back to the doctor yesterday. The doctor said to her, “what are you doing here? You’re supposed to be all better by now.” I agreed and told him that’s why we were there ….. because she wasn’t better yet! Long story short, she got more antibiotics — erythromycin for 7 days, cough syrup with codeine, decongestant, and regular cough syrup. Last night she took her cough syrup with codeine….. 12 hours later we forced her to get out of bed!! She’s doing MUCH better today!! Thank goodness for drugs!
Today we drove the back way up the West Maui mountains to go see the Blow Hole. The back way is hold on to your hat, switch back, up, down one lane roads. What’s really funny is when the road is one lane and you come up on a sign that says “Narrow Road”. Uhhh…. what’s this that we’re on?? A wide road?? When I say one lane I mean if you come up on a vehicle going the other direction, unless there is a wide spot…. someone is backing up! Needless to say we enjoyed the Blow Hole, but the trip was half the adventure!
We followed that up with a leisurely drive through Lahaina, stopping to do some snorkeling at Honolua Bay. To get down to the bay you go through this very cool forest. It’s very Mirkwood or Sherwood feeling. Extremely green, with Ivy and moss covered trees. One of the coolest things is all the Cathedral cactuses growing up in the branches of the trees. The roots hang down looking like a weeping willow. It’s quite and kinda creepy. Very cool.
These two places are two of my favorites spots on the island. They are both unique and offer something special. So, question for the day….. what is your favorite spot to go?
Ok, gotta go, need to help get dinner ready — shish kabobs….. yum! Have a great weekend.

I remember those trees. I took many pictures of those. My favorite spot is always by the water. I am glad your daughter is feeling much better.
Yay! She got some good drugs!!! I’m glad she’s feeling better.

so glad to hear that she is feeling better! Sounds like you guys are having a great time. My favorite spot to go anywhere is to a beach. Love hearing the waves crash makes me relax. Have a good time with Parents!
