We just got back from the most amazing vacation in Maui. Thanks to all our great babysitters so we could leave the kids home. Shane attended a conference in Hawaii so he got some CE done. We stayed at the resort where the conference was held, and it felt like we were in a dream the entire time. We have so many great pictures I'm going to post them in groups. Here we are getting ready to go Zip lining. Something we had never done before and I want to do it again. It wasn't at all scary and we are both afraid of heights.
Brad and Tammy also came with us on the zip line.
This is our group that we spent the afternoon with. They were so much fun. It took about 4 hours to do the course. Here we had stopped to eat lunch.
This is the platform we stop at. We hit the white square and then there's a long spring that slows you down. You can see from this picture the valleys we went over were amazing.
Just finished a run. You can see the springs all bunched up. They would straighten them out before the next couple came. There was a little hiking involved after each run so you could get to the next one.
This was the only run were we walked up on a tall platform and sat on the edge to go.
The guides
The view
Most of the runs were like this. The guide would hook us up then open the gate and let us go.
The Unimog we road up the mountain on. Shane decided this truck needed to be added to his list of toys he should own someday.

I'm very jealous! That sounds like so much fun. Glad you had a great time!
I'm so glad you guys had so much fun! What a great memory, and adventure!
How fun is that??! Seriously, every one I know and their dog went to Hawaii this winter, except me! I can't wait to see the rest of your pictures! I am afraid of heights as well, but I think I could do that...or at least try!
I'm very jealous. Hopefully we can do some ce in Hawaii sometime. All we got this year was Idaho Falls, very luxurious!!
Are you sure it was a work conference? :) I have always wanted to try zip lining.... now we definately have too!
Oh how we miss Hawaii. We will have to go back someday. The zip line looks like a lot of fun. That event is definitely on my list now. So glad you got to get away together.
I have always wanted to do Zip lining! You make me jealous- but in a good way! I happy for you!
So fun! We leave on Sunday for the big Island! We still need to go on that cruise someday! Remember planning it for hours in the pool? BTW, do you do facebook?
