Today we rented wetsuit tops at the Maui Dive Shop so that we could stay out longer in the 74° water. What a difference! We snorkeled for over two hours going out to the buoy where they anchor the Kai Kanani, to the north edge of the hotel beach and then back across to the south edge. We saw several turtles, a couple rare-ish fish, and the highlight of the snorkel - an undulated moray eel.
Lunch/Dinner was at the Pupu Lounge Seafood & Grill. The "catch of the day" was walu and Valerie had it on a sandwich and Ron had it as fish-n-chips. Hmmm.
We made a short stop at Foodland to pick up Manju and checked out the Shops at Wailea (the Tiffany, Rolex, and Louis Vuitton shops had zero customers) then went back to the hotel for a relaxing evening.

Thank you Maui Dive Shop

Undulated Moray Eel - that's not too happy with Ron getting so close. Notice the curled lip showing him his teeth!
