Maui News Tidbits

- Outdoor Polo games are at Olinda Field every Sunday at 1:00 commencing September 1st. Very exciting (I prefer the Polo matches to the annual rodeo). It is right across from the entrance to Seabury Hall. It is so beautiful up there. Great shopping in Makawao (and farther down in Paia), hot Mexican food at Poli's in Makawao, and hikes at the top of Olinda Road, public welcomed (no kapu signs).

 -   Flatbreads in Paia is a fairly new, excellent organic fare restaurant. Pizza to die for. Great salads. (Watch out, might now be appropriate for everyone: lots of beautiful young servers in skimpy tee-shirts.

- Roy's Restaurant - Latest word on the street is that it may have changed a bit. Much smaller wine list, limited salad selection, smaller entrée menu. Soufflé still great.

- Kahili Golf Course (used to be Sandlewood) is in GREAT shape. Challenging, great fairways and greens. Off Honoapiilani Hwy on way to Wailuku.

- Kapalua - Village Golf Course is temporarily closed, may (or now - may not) be converted to private course. Note: Kapalua Golf Academy is still at the Village Clubhouse and the best golf instructor in the world - Jerry King - is still there.

- Sansei in Kihei - still great selections - food and liquor.
