On our last day in Hawaii, I ventured over to the North Shore of Maui with John, Dots, my mother and my mother-in-law to take in some big waves and some good seafood at the celebrated Mama's Fish House
This boat marks the entrance to Mama's
Mama's Fish House is situated right next to the beach. The dining area is an upscale version of the Tiki Room at Disneyland
Check out this view from inside the restaurant!
Dots with her tropical Shirley Temple - who doesn't love a drink served with a little umbrella?
I had the specialty of the house: mahi mahi stuffed with crab and shrimp. It was fabulous!
Dots took this picture of our table
After lunch Dots and John checked out the beach
Dots and me in front of Mama's - you can see the open air dining room behind us to the left
Meanwhile back at the resort...
Hockey Boy ran into a friend from his hockey team (the boy in the orange shirt) who was also vacationing with his family at our hotel
Emmitt Smith and his beautiful wife, Pat, at the pool (the NFL Retired Players Association was meeting at our hotel this week)

What wonderful photos ~ they are all lovely. I was there many years ago when my husbands sub pulled in for a port call. I think it's time for a return visit ;)

Things I enjoy: playing duplicate bridge, working NY Times crossword puzzles, reading good books, entertaining, visiting with friends, planning trips, traveling, playing board games, spending time with family, working Liberty jigsaw puzzles, cooking, keeping up with old friends ~~~ happy to correspond with other parents about raising a child with special needs
I unintentionally contaminated all of the pictures on my blog when I changed my privacy settings on Flickr. I am working backwards to correct them all, but it is quite a tedious procedure! If you encounter a post with error messages from Flickr where the pictures should be, then I haven't gotten to that post yet. Please let me know and I will update it immediately. Thanks for your patience!

I almost feel like I was there! Well... not really, but I'm so glad you all had such a wonderful vacation!
I hope to go there someday - it looks like a piece of heaven! Looks like it was an amazing vacation. And that food! It's making my stomach growl...
That food looks amazing. It is easy to see you all had a fabulous vacation. Our spring break is winding down and sadly we are heading home tomorrow.
So beautiful, E - I can't fathom ever wanting to come home after that!
