My wife and I are fully vaccinated and a big believer of wearing masks and social distancing. But we have paid and booked everything we need for a maui vacation months in advance for September 14. Should we try to get a refund and if we can go will it even be worth it with all the restrictions?

@@joelnguyen3875 we are kind of in the same boat. Booked and paid in Feb., arriving Maui Sept 5. Been a rough year for us so we were really looking forward to this. After looking into possible refund, if even possible, we have decided that we are going. We will do what we can do and enjoy whatever it is we do. A local news station here in the Bay Area said yesterday that a number of people have canceled upcoming trips, which might be helpful for those of us who do go. We understand the situation we are going into and we will make the best of it!

I checked out the Kaanapali food truck park a few weeks again, while vacationing in Maui. It was a great option for our family since there were 9 of us, and everyone could choose what type of food they wanted. We made the mistake though of going around 6:30, so lines were very long and wait time for food was around an hour for the more popular trucks. We decided to take a walk down to the beach to watch the sunset, then came back an hour later when lines were a little shorter. I definitely recommend going early when they open (I think around 4:30-5) to avoid long waits. Most of our group got food from the Mexican place or Hooked (seafood plates). Both were pretty decent. Definitely looking forward to checking out some other food trucks next time I’m in Maui!

We drove out of the airport rental car lot and right into one of the Costco food truck parks when we arrived just after noon. I had fish tacos from Da Nani Pirates, husband had poke (forgot the truck name) and coffee from Kraken. It was a great lunch! Later in the trip we hit up the Satori sushi truck in Makawao during our Haleakalā bike trip and it was exceptional.

Oldest had an amazing salad/sweet potato/Mahi mahi from Abiki's. (That's where I'm eating next.)

food trucks are a rip off; small meals ,very expensive , and not even good food, $45 on average for 2 people. the only good thing is the expirience to sit outside having a meal. pu are better off going to a restaurant you will pay almost the same for bigger and tastier meals.
