Maui - Day 7

This is our last FULL day on Maui, so we wanted to relax and thoroughly enjoy the vacation. We slept in, read, and then headed to the coffee shop to grab some more yummy coffee. Dustin had been wanting to rent a boogie board all week, too, so we grabbed one before jumping in the car and heading out to our favorite beach one last time – Big Beach. Unfortunately, the weather was not cooperating with us and it was cloudy and rainy most of the day. Although, it was a blessing in disguise because of Dustin’s itchy sun rash. On the drive over, we stopped at Hilo Hattie’s (a souvenir store) with plans to just run in and go to the bathroom. Well, we started watching someone crack open an oyster and buy a pearl so we decided to pay the $15 and do the same. Well, the oyster Dustin’s chose (you have no clue what’s going to be in it) had twin black pearls in it. They are so pretty. So we got them set as stud earrings and I love them! We jumped back in the car and drove a little past the beach and through La Perouse Bay, which is the last place where lava exploded on the island. It was everywhere! Then over to the beach, where we sat through a 45 minute rain shower…literally, I had my towel over me and covering me from the cold and rain. Dustin was able to boogie board a little and then we called it a day. That evening, we went for a walk on the beach and watched an amazingly gorgeous sunset!

Boogie boarding....even though the waves weren't that great today!

He got a busted lip when the board bounced off the wave and smacked him in the face - OUCH!

Despite the fact that this looks like an 8 year old girl, it's me!

These black clouds were over us almost all afternoon....and you can see that I wasn't that happy about it!

These are our footsteps for our walk on the beach at sunset....and these are the pictures of the gorgeous sunset!
