Looks like our Thursday plans leave a little time around 4:00, so we'll drop by for a drink! Looking forward to meeting everyone:)

Look for DW and I :hi: sitting at a table under the new umbrellas. I will try to get a table near the steps down from the pool. We will be easy to spot, as we will be wearing Hawaiian shirts. :hysterical: Oh wait, :eek: everyone wears one of those. OK, well I will have on my Tilly Hat. You may be able to recognise me from my profile photo.

In case I was not clear, we will be at the Pailolo bar, on the North side, about 4:00pm, today, Thursday, Feb 3. We will try to get a table near the fire pit at the bar entrance. Happy Hour starts at 4:00pm.

See you tuggers there.

We had a nice turn-out of TUGers this afternoon. Besides myself and DW, there was Tony (Waterwiz), Paula and Chris, and Patty (aeroflygirl). We enjoyed the $4.00 Mai Tai's and got to know a little about each other.

I took a picture and will try to publish it once I get home and can host it someplace.

I'm sorry I missed the festivities today. We stayed in the Maui Upcountry and I didn't get back until 6:30. Hopefully there will be another happy hour when the rest of the crew gets in.

Paula passed on some sand toys for under 5 year olds. I don't need them but said I would pass them on. So anyone that wants some sand toys, let me know. We are in 8511 till Sunday AM, then move to a one bedroom for next week.

Did you see the show a couple of whales were putting on yesterday around sunset? They were splashing so loudly with their tail that you could hear it at Pailolo. The one whale did this many times in a row. A whale was coming half way out of the water, tail first!

I'm moving in the opposite direction, from a 1BR into the studio next door where we had some friends staying this week.

Tuggers in Maui the week of Feb. 6.

Lets try again for a get together for drinks for those that missed last week. Since Monday is supposed to be a little rainy, how about Monday, Feb 7 at 4:00pm at the Pailolo bar on the north side. That is when happy hour starts and the drinks become a little less expensive. Maybe the whales will cooperate and put on a show for us.

I will try to grab a table near the steps down from the pool area.

Sorry we missed that. We were out on the Scotch Mist II. Had a nice sail and saw some good action near sunset.

Last week we had a TUG get together at the Pailolo bar at WKORN. I took a couple of photos, so I am posting them here.

By the way, we are doing it again today, Monday Feb 7, at 4:00pm at the same place, Pailolo. Any Tuggers in Maui this week are welcome.

We had a nice Tug meeting yesterday. Ken555, and Jesse and Kristina showed up. Nice to put faces with the screen names.

We went whale watching this morning (Tuesday, 2/8) and it was great. Captain Steve did a wonderful job. Spent most of the time near a pod of whales competing for a female. Lots of action and very close to the ship. I highly recommend Capt. Steve whale watch.

Taking your advice and heading out with Capt Steve tomorrow morning!

You will have a great time Ken! We enjoyed Capt Steve on Monday. Have fun!

Water was mirror calm and perfect this morning, and we saw at least 30 whales. I'll try to post a pic later on. Great trip and I'd also recommend Capt Steve (and will likely go out again next time I'm here during the season).

We went out with Trilogy Monday afternoon and had a great time. Saw many whales up close, some putting on quite a show, breaching and flapping their flukes over and over.

There are supposed to be 8,000 to 9,000 whales in the area surrounded by Maui, Lanai and Molokai, so it is hard to miss them. It is great to hear their songs just snorkeling in front of the resort.

So sad that tomorrow is our last day here.
