Maui Days 3-7: See you later Maui

Day 3 was actually very adventurous. I finally learned how to surf! Watching the surf lessons before mine made me confident that I could stand up on my board and ride the small little waves too, but for some reason as I was dragging my surf board out onto the blazing hot sand, my conscience hit me. All my confidence was left on the sand and as I was dragged into the ocean by my cool hawaiian accent instructor, I was obligated to try standing on my board and riding a wave once. I am actually really glad that I actually went out because honestly it gives you a sense of rush and success when you successfully ride all the way to shore. Day 4 just consisted of going to my family's favorite local beach,: burning our pasty gangsta bodies, watching the local hawaiians skim board, and swimming with the turtles. Prior to going to Big Beach, we went to the Fairmont hotel in Wailea to pick up the shoyu chicken noodles along with the mango chicken on baguette bread. YUMM!! Day 5 was snorkeling day! My mom actually changed it up this trip and arranged a boat trip to Lanai to go snorkeling and cliff jumping! I saw turtles and a variety of fish, however the highlight of our snorkeling trip was swimming with all the wild dolphins! Definitely an experience that deserves the label of AMAZING! The dolphins weren't like the ones at SeaWorld, they were very in their own confortable environment showing off to all of the people on the snorkeling trip. Day 6 was one of those relaxing days. We rented cabanas at the hotel and enjoyed the sun hitting our skin as we ate pineapples and drank tons of water.  It was a nice way to enjoy the Maui weather that I will forever remember. Day 7 was bittersweet. Bitter because I know this might be the last family Maui trip that I will have with my family for a long time because I will be going off to college far away from home. Sweet because I know my summer adventures are going to start with all my friends at home! If you have never been to Maui, you should definitely go! You will not be disappointed with all the nice people, beautiful weather and amazing food. See you later Maui! Thank you for treating us out with all your love <3 Hopefully see you soon! Now.. I am back home hanging out with all my friends, getting ready for college, and attempting everything on my summer bucket list!
