January 4-12, 2000 My wife, Christine, and I took a vacation to Maui.  I managed to fit 4 sailplanes in the luggage, 3 foamies and a go fast Seledkin.

Me and Al Battad	Al putting the mini ellipse together	Duane Asami, me and Al (the locals) Al's website Duane's website	Al and his Lucky
At the Boy Scout camp the wind was light so we did a bunch of launching and catching			Al is bushed after a very long walk of shame.  He said he was just working on his tan. :-)
Al took us to a place were the trees say it all	Foam in paradise	My friend Jim McKenney flying for the first time	Jim on the trainer chord
	getting the Seledkin ready	Don't blink,  an extra 2 pounds of ballast helps.	Christine on the trainer chord
	Pushing out	The sunset behind the mountain was fantastic	Seledkin in the red sky
Another local joins me for a bit of soaring		Walking back from another good landing	If you go there bring something fast because the air is as big as the smiles
		#1 house on the planet, I hope this guy flies
