Maui was the perfect place for a mother daughter vacation. Nolan got to tag along. But really, we were all on vacation with Nolan. Travelling with an infant is a much difference experience. He did very well overall but man nap times can ruin a beach day. We got through the first flight on the way over with flying colors. First class is the way to go!
The first night did not well but what can you expect with the time change. He didn't sleep much longer than 1 hour stretches. We all took turns making him happy but in the end it took 2 walks in the middle of the night just to get us to 7:00 as an acceptable time to be up for the day. My mom and sisters were beyond helpful. They entertained him, walked him, distracted him, danced with him, fed him, swam with him, and of coursed loved on him. Their patience in beyond measure.
Maui was its usual beautiful self. The weather was perfect, the water was amazing, and the beach was picturesque. We walked miles and miles on the beach walk and spent hours with our feet in the sand. We found sea shells, saw spinner dolphins, ran into a high school friend, drank frozen drinks and played a new late night card game "Cards for Humanity".
I am hoping this is the first of an annual tradition. Nolan's good behavior on the airplane make me feel like we are ready for more. It may be early to say, but he might be a jet setter at heart.
