We woke to a beautiful sunny warm morning on Christmas day. Yes, like every morning we enjoy on Maui! We have started a ritual of having our morning tea, fruit, and scones on the lanai. We like to watch the antics of our freshwater fish in their aquarium as we give them their breakfast. We also like watching whales frolic offshore.

We find it hard to find surprise gifts for each other so we wrapped some little things for the stockings and also wrapped some of the things we already knew we were getting.

Later, we went to our friends Roger and Wanda’s for a Christmas feast and enjoyed time with their family, watching college football, and playing a game of cards.
