There’s a lot to tell about our trip to Hawaii, and many, many pictures to show, but there’ll be time for that. The most important story is this:
On Sunday, the night before we were leaving Maui, we took a sunset catamaran cruise from Ka’anapali Beach. There were mai tais, champagne, and a lot of celebrating by everyone on board. We sailed up the beach and back, then stopped to watch the sunset over Lana’i.
Matt and I walked to Hula Grill for dinner, and managed to get seats at the chef’s bar where we could sit and watch all the food being prepared. We had mai tais and ordered the tasting menu, which was fantastic. Afterward, he asked if I wanted to walk back to our resort via the road or the beach, so we took the beach route. And then he asked me to marry him.
I cried for a very long time. Once I mostly recovered, we started walking back. On the way, I saw a shooting star, and all these amazing tiny glowing things washed up on the beach. I kept feeling like I couldn’t get enough air in my lungs.
When we were out later that night, he reminded me that I hadn’t actually said yes yet. (Don’t worry, I fixed it.)
Best vacation ever.
