The Travels and a quick update

Holy crap it's a long way to Maui...I haven't been on a plane for that long since I lived in Europe and had to make the trek back and forth several times a year! At any rate, despite being picked on by Tom and Branden the entire trip and the 4 hour time change, everything went smooth sailing. The above pic is the view from our condo....sooooo pretty :)

So today we went down to the race headquarters to register and to get in a bike ride on the 'practice course'. The best part is that Tom 'Mr. Anti-triathlon' Torrance had to sign up for a one day USA Triathlon license just to ride the practice course with us...haha, too funny.

Better yet, he had to put an XTERRA number plate on his bike!!! I bet all his mountain bike friends are laughing now!

We then went for a short swim in the choppy ocean, watched Branden make fun of Lieb's gigantic goggle-like sunglasses then back to the condo for some lunch and a little rest.

A fun BBQ in the evening made for a great first day here in Maui. Lots more to come so stay tuned.
