Maui Day 11

Today is the day for a little adventure! This morning took us to Maui Tropical Plantation for a zipline adventure with Maui Zipline Company, which is located at the plantation. First just John and June were going to go and then I decided to go as well. We got there at our 9:30a check in time and we were soon adorned with our gear, walking up to the tower, up the steps, and ready for our first line! John and I did a zipline long ago in Belize but this was June's first time and something on her "bucket list" as well. We had a nice visit with one of the staff. He is a Marine veteran who was on a ship like Steven was on. He brought up photos on his laptop to show us. Such a nice young man who served 3 tours in Iraq. The entire adventure was about 90 minutes. The staff was just super, so helpful, friendly, and patient. The worst part of it all is up on the tower platform and the need to stand up on a box to attach to the line. The wind was blowing as it always does out there and you feel like you will blow off. That first step off is a bit challenging but flying across on the zipline is fun and exhilarating. 

After this we ate at the Mill House restaurant, which is right there at the plantation. The food was delicious, but small portions. They had oldies music playing, Hawaiian would have been nicer. They brought bread about the time we finished our entrees. No salad or anything is served with the entree, which makes it seem a little expensive for what you get. But as I said, the food and the bread were delicious. We decided to skip the tram today as we are tired. We would like to come back rested and walk around the gardens and look through the shop a bit more.  

Our time in Maui is going by so quickly!!!
