The Feast at Lele ~ Lahaina, Maui
On my recent trip to Maui, we packed up the car one afternoon, drove on over to historic Lahaina town...
and checked out this HUGE Banyan Tree! 
This famous tree, located in courthouse square in the center of Lahaina, was brought to Maui from India when the tree was a mere eight-feet tall. 
The tree is now about 50 feet high and extends over 200 feet from side to side! (It dwarfs ME!)

Oh yeah...and Mai Tais!
Oh yeah...and Mai Tais! Bottoms up!
Among other things, we ate imu-roasted kalua pig from Hawaii, Maori fishcake from New Zealand, poisson cru from Tahiti, and beef with breadfruit from Samoa.
With so many choices, even the less adventurous eaters had a great time!
And they call this drink a Lava Flow! (aka: Guaranteed Hangover)
Yikes! Mai Tais + Lava Flows = Heat on!! 
Phew! Even our servers were HOT!

I'm Kind of a Big Deal & Have a BIG Candle Too!
As promised, here's picture of me IN the T-Shirt I won for being in the Top 100 Blogs at FuelMyBlog! Many thanks to Kevin & Sylvie...and everyone who's ever fueled me up! 
AND... 
Little Petra and I have been having a ball bonding over over a few Sierra Nevada Pale Ales (yum, my favorite!) and merrily dreaming about our next exciting globetrotting adventure!
AND... as if THAT wasn't enough excitement...the cool Peter G. Candles centerpiece I won from this FuelMyBlog contest also just arrived! It's beautiful, HUGE and smells like cinnamon! I LOVE it!
BUT...
I nearly bust an underwire when I saw what else was in the box....
Yes...it's PETRA!
The poor little wayward bra, rescued a couple of months ago by Fracas and her Famous Fraccy Posse from a near death experience! (Forced to become a kiwi-support device by certain person who shall remainfaceless headless nameless.) Petra had been recovering with her brave and bodacious saviour in Canada, where coincidentally my bee-yoo-tiful candle was made AND where I am convinced some of the nicest people on earth reside!
