And the winner is...Chocolate Monkeys!




We just returned from a week long adventure to Maui with the girls. We had been before, and while we were there we kept saying how much the kids would love it. When my grandpa gave my mom a timeshare, and she offered it to us, we jumped at the opportunity to return, but this time with the girls.

We referred to our trip constantly as a week of adventure. We snorkeled, kayaked, swam, "belly" boarded, boogie boarded, surfed (Bob only), and had fun with underwater photography. We fit in a couple of movies, some shopping, and a lot of fancy eating.

As we were driving to the airport, we asked the girls what their favorite part of the trip was, and the consensus seemed to be the unlimited (but costly) Chocolate Monkeys at the resort.

A Chocolate Monkey is simply a banana chocolate milkshake. What's ironic is my grandpa who helped us take this trip is famous for his milkshakes in our family. I won't even tell you how many $6.00 milkshakes we drank by the pool this week.

I would pay more than $6 for one of grandpa's milkshakes right now.
