Aloha! After a stress filled two months of heart attack, wedding, pneumonia, and moving, the week of our delayed honeymoon in Maui was wonderfully relaxing. The beauty, easy pace, relaxing days and warm evenings were a balm to our bodies and souls.
Fifty years ago, a little girl of 9 entered the new Wonderful World of Disneyland. This year we joined the throngs of people on the 4th or July weekend to celebrate that 50th Anniversary and show the little girls all the wonders of the Magic Kingdom that little girl, now called Nana, enjoyed all those years ago. It was great fun to see it through their eyes and all ... young and old ... played with Mickey and all his friends.
Relax, do nothing, sun, water, food, massage, mud slides, pool, ocean, sand ... These are just a few of our favorite words when we think of the Grand Velas. The multiple pools drew all family members into the water and before we knew it, Tori was swimming along with big sister, Kate. It was always a hard decision whether to eat Mexican food or Italian or American — so many choices, so little time.
