Jan.14

Today we drove into Kahului, about a 20 minute trip.
Filled up with gas at Costco, $2.55 a gallon or about  75 cents a litre . One of the cheapest things about Maui along with the liquor!
We bought a couple of beach towels at a thrift store to replace one of the condo's towels that we think was taken from our lanai in the night.
Didn't want to spend a lot on a towel we have to leave behind.
We drove to the  commercial docks area to try a little fishing.
I didn't catch anything, lost a lure on the bottom.
A guy beside me caught a little yellow fish we had seen while snorkeling, Karen thought it was like seeing a kitten on the hook!
Luckily he threw it back. Hope I don't catch a cute fish!
We had lunch in Wailuku at Sam Sato's,  a local noodle place we have been meaning to try for years.
We had saimin noodles and 2 beef and 2 chicken sticks or skewers.
Place was full of locals, food was very good, more than we could eat for less than $20 for the 2 of us.
On the way home we came across a huli huli chicken trailer.
They appear here and there, charcoal grilled rotisserie chickens in sweet teriyaki type sauce.
We didn't buy any but we've had it before and it's very tasty.
Also saw this sign on a car in a parking lot.
Sheesh, Americans and their military!
We support the troops too but doesn't this guy realize that 25% of  the residents of Maui don't speak English at home?
I'm pretty sure they are proud to be American too.
As usual we spent the rest of the afternoon by the pool, chatting with our friends and trying to get some exercise in the water.
Have to burn off some of these extra calories somehow!
