Today was our last day on Maui, but since we were taking the red-eye flight in the late afternoon, we had some time to do a few last-minute things. That included lunch at the Ono Teppanyaki and Seafood truck, followed by a quick visit to Kanaha Beach. The shrimp and ahi were delicious, and the beach was lovely. I wish we had enough time to go for a swim, but we’ll have to do that next time.

Thank you Maui. Mahalo and aloha!

This afternoon we stopped by Ululani’s in Kahului for some shave ice. I got the Local Motion, which had mango, pineapple, and li hing mui syrup. And then I got haupia ice cream underneath. It was so good! Definitely recommend, although maybe next time I’ll get a keiki (kid) size. :)

Burgers & Beers

“Burger Time” Lahaina, 2023

For lunch today, we went to It’s Cherry in Lahaina. They serve yummy veggie burgers at the old Sugar Cane Train location. The burgers were pretty good! If you are visiting Lahaina, it’s a solid choice to grab a bite.

After that, we went to Koholā Brewery next door for a drink before heading back home. Lahaina is about a 30-minute drive from Wailuku, so it’s not too long a trip, especially because the views of the water, beaches, and Kahoʻolawe are so nice.

こんにちは! How’s it going?

Today we went to Gyu-Kaku for some yakiniku. It was yummy! Since it was during happy hour, we ordered many different types of meat. And also a pitcher of beer which we couldn’t finish. $16 for a pitcher of Kirin!

Today’s photos were taken using the Toy Camera mode on the Olympus E-PL9. I set it to square format to get that old Polaroid look and enjoy it very much! You’ll probably be seeing lots more photos like this in the future.

My Fujifilm X-E4 also has a similar filter, but I think the Olympus does a better job at it.

I hope you had a good day! またね〜
