I'm leaving for Maui tomorrow morning. One week. I want to travel light, relax on the beach, and drink like a fish. Instead, I have to pack heavy (gifts and champagne for a wedding, a CPAP machine for obstructive sleep apnea, and excess amounts of footwear). If the equivalent of LASIK surgery was availble for my air passages, I spend it. (Even the smallest CPAP in the world is a bulky eyesore. That's better than a nose snore, I suppose.) Instead, I'll concentrate on choosing a few fun activities. Chris' Bike Adventures was fun the two times I went in the 90s. Lahaina was a fun tourist trap. I've never driven the road to Hana or seen the Iao Needle at Iao Valley State Park. Whatever happens, I'm looking forward to a week's respite.
