Mel cam over for fresh-challah french toast, ham and fruit for breakfast x-mas morning with me and the fam. After, I shared some 'irreverent' internet videos with them... they loved it. After exchanging food and ideas we headed north for a series of short hikes. The wind coming over the cliffs was over 20 mph on the ridges!



Sorry, the food was too good to take pictures of... meaning it got eaten before I thought of it :-)

I promised some diving pictures so here they are




Also here is a movie shot by Mel. If anyone reading this ever wants to learn more about Hawaiian biology or do one of their family oriented educational projects with these guys on Maui I have to give them props. They are the absolute best.
