After I arrived at the airport in Kahului, retrieved my bag and picked up my rental car, I headed over to the Maui Community College campus right behind my new co-worker Joie, who had come to meet me at the aiport. We went straight to the cafeteria, run by the school's culinary academy. As Joie told me over a plate lunch of chicken katsu, one has the opportunity here to become either very fit, or very fat!
I spent a couple of hours with Joie, met Chancellor Clyde Sakamoto, Vice Chancellor Suzette Robinson, and several other people who I will have to be re-introduced to, and saw my new office space before I gave up for the day and headed over to my temporary digs in the Hibiscus Room at the Wailuku Guest House. I was warmly welcomed there by owner Maureen and her two very friendly dogs who were jumping in and out of the salt water pool. If you're not a dog lover, this might not be the place for you! (Also, if you don't like the sound of an extremely loud and vocal ruby macaw, but more about that later.)
