Maui HI Day 15 Post 4

Kiddo Update:
Adrian has grown an inch since we've come to Maui! I know anything will grow here like it's on steroids but I didn't expect Adrian to grow so much so fast. My nails and hair but not my kid...who knew! He is as tall as some 2 year olds he was playing with on the beach. He made friends everywhere he goes :)
Adrian now says 'moon', asks for a 'spoon', says 'rock' and 'fish' and loves his 'birds'! He calls all liquid 'juice' including water, milk, and even the ocean. His favorite word is 'mama' and he uses it like a little parakeet. He talks a lot more; even though a lot of it is still just babbles he uses more intonation and inflection, eye contact and hand motions. He knows 'yes' and 'no' and will answer questions now.
Adrian is loving all the fresh fruit growing all over the place out here..pineapples, mangoes, bananas (little ones call apple-bananas which are sweeter) and papaya! He can devour an entire mango in about 2 seconds. He's tried poke which is raw fish and enjoyed it!

In the last few days:
Saturday: Barry and I made a trek to Haleakala Crater (10,000 feet in about an hour)!
Sunday: We went to Papalua Beach again but with Deborah and my dad this time.
Monday: Yesterday we went to the Maui Ocean Center/Aquarium with the grandma and grandpa.
Tuesday: Today Barry and I went to Hana (50 miles/52bridges/one lane but 2 way road with recommended speeds of 10-20 mph the whole way and only one way in or out).

Coming up:
Wednesday: Barry and I are going on a Cocktail cruise on a whale watching boat
Thursday: Leaving for the airport at 8pm.
