We started off the day with a drive out to check out some beaches. \u00a0We ended up traveling out to Kahului for a couple of beaches and ended at Kihei. \u00a0It was really nice to put our toes in the surf and walk around without a care in the world. \u00a0We had lunch in Kihei in a caf\u00c3\u00a9 that served us saut\u00c3\u00a9ed mahi mahi, and after a couple of cocktails we hit went swimming one more time and then headed back to the Underwoods\u2019 place.<\/p>\n
They took us to a flatbread pizza place in the hippie town of Paia which had some enormous, delicious pizzas. \u00a0My favorite was covered with goat cheese, but they had plenty of options on the other pizzas to keep us interested. \u00a0There was a waiter that Alex kind of liked named Seth who I was interested in meeting, but unfortunately he wasn\u2019t working that evening. \u00a0We kicked off the dinner with a salad full of exotic ingredients – which caused me some problems later on. \u00a0But the evening was great and we left with full stomachs. \u00a0I drove one of the cars back home with Kuniko and Susan, and then we came back inside and played some ping pong and got ready to watch a movie. \u00a0It was just about that time that I felt a little bit of itchiness on my arm and leg. \u00a0I went into our bathroom to look in a mirror, and I could see that I was getting some kind of allergic reaction starting. \u00a0This has happened before about a year ago, but this was a particularly strong reaction. \u00a0I tried to go out and talk with everyone, but I almost passed out all of the sudden. \u00a0After causing a general panic, I decided to lay down and just wait for the reaction to pass. \u00a0Susan gave me some Benedryl to try to stop the reaction, but I don\u2019t think it had any effect. \u00a0After about an hour, I felt much better and the hives disappeared. \u00a0It was a little bit of a scary situation for a while there, but then everything was fine. \u00a0Who knows what caused it – but I\u00a0didn’t\u00a0have any other problems like that the rest of the trip.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
