We've just returned from an indulgent trip to Hawaii, Maui to be specific. My senses were on overload the entire time! The sea has so much to offer, especially when it comes to cuisine. Our final night we went to Duke's on Kaanapali Beach, where I delighted in an amazing appetizer of ahi poke, lightly wrapped, quickly fried and served atop a beurre blanc sauce...are you kidding me?! So delicious. For my entree, I continued the ahi feast with a wasabi and sesame crusted filet, just seared, served with grilled baby bok choy, sticky rice and a wonderful concoction of edamame, cucumber and black sesame seeds. ***Note to self: do NOT write posts such as this with an already growling stomach!
In addition to using a digital camera and my phone to capture moments, I also used my Polaroid, one of the more recent models, the Polaroid 300. I really miss the original cameras, and while I have a couple that function well, the film is close to impossible to find!
These snapshots provide a peek into the abundant sensory experiences: soft sand beneath my feet, tropical breezes, the sound of the crashing waves, the fragrance of plumerias, the sun beating down and refreshing dives into the ocean, the lush greenery and abundance of unusual tropical flowers, the chirping of geckos...I'll hold these memories close; it's so hard to transition back to reality. *sigh*
