Well, what can I say... the trip itself took a lot out of me. I'm not used to the time difference of 5 hours neither.
On the first night that was Saturday, it was a nice flight out which I really enjoyed. Joy let me sit next to the window and I loved the clouds, being told by the pilot of the sights below.
The flight itself was a long one though, almost 9 hrs with stop-overs and change of planes. By the time we got into Maui we were tired.
We picked up 5 hrs though and since then I've been struggling with it ever since.
Paula, Michael, Staci and Anastasia picked us up at the curb after Angel came in and met us at the gate and showed us thru. It was nice to see her and meet her. She is as gorgeous as the rest of them.
After getting our bags we stepped out to the curb and I saw this huge 4x4 sitting there, black and silver in color with dark tinted windows and little Oakland Raider emblems on the knockout caps of the wheels.
I knew it had to be Michael's. As we made our way to the truck. Woman after woman stepped down from this massive truck and as we walked up Joy and I were swooped up. Paula hugged Joy then me, followed by Staci who I thought was going to break me in half with a huge hug then Anastasia.
Michael was the last to walk around the truck and passed Joy up and went straight to me. He hugged me as I hugged him back and I laid a kiss on his lips. He then turned to Joy and gave her a long hug with a kiss on the lips.
Introductions were made and then we moved towards the truck. Staci helped everyone take that first step up on the running board before she slipped inside herself. Michael walked to the driver's side of the truck but since he's taking things slowly we all were in the truck before he was.
He started up this truck and the engine was so smooth and silent. I'm used to the trucks back home where louder is better. Not here I guess. It rode so smooth for a big 4x4 with those big knobby tires and a 5-inch lift. I could barely see over the dashboard.
Michael pretty much listened to the conversations rather than talking. I know he's a quite man but I wasn't sure just how quiet until that night.
Michael pulled off the main road and up onto an old dirt road. He made the turns smooth and before I knew it we were heading downhill. Up another bend in the road and then up a private road. Once we heading up he flicked a switch and the road lit up. He had turned the KC lights mounted on the front grill and on the roof of the cab. It looked like daylight.
As we made one last turn, I saw wrought iron gates making their way around a huge house. Michael drove up the long driveway and flicked another button. I saw the tall gates ahead open up and without slowing down at all Michael inched past the barely open gates.
He flicked the switch again causing them to close behind him. Once closed a red light flashed on the console. He drove up to the front of this huge house and parked it behind a classic old 1966 blue Ford Mustang.
Staci jumped out first then helped each of us out. It was funny, Staci grabbed my bag that I was holding and then reached out for me. I took her hand but she told me to reach with both hands. I then found the answer to a previous question I had been thinking about on the way to Paula's house and that was, 'I wonder how strong she is'.
Staci took my hands and pulled me forward the placed her hands under my arms as if holding a baby and lifted me from the truck. I felt embarrassed until she did the same thing to Joy and Angel. She is very strong.
Once back to Paula's house it was a night of relaxation and chatter. Drinks flowed, wine flowed and all I could do was marvel at the photos on the walls. Some of Paula in modern black and white motif with gold frames. All photos of her were either nude or semi nude. She looked beautiful.
We talked late into the night as I was falling asleep before anyone else looked even remotely tired. For me it was late but in reality I think it was like 10pm. My body told me to go to bed so I kissed everyone and headed upstairs.
Joy had showed me our room and boy was it nice, more photos of nudes on the walls. The walls were painted a frost color, which made it homey. The bed was big king size with matching covers that matched the decor of the room. Very nice for sure.
Joy came upstairs shortly after me and she too got herself ready for bed. I was dead tired that after brushing my teeth I just dropped into bed. Joy was about to turn off the light when Paula came up and asked if everything was ok. We both answered yes as Paula turned off the light and told us g'nite.
I passed out from exhaustion listening to Joy talk to me but that turned into a blur as I went into dreamland. I slept really good and that bed is so comfortable.
In the morning, I awoke first. I lay there wondering what the day would hold for us. I looked over at the clock and it read 5 am. Knowing nobody else would be awake I got out of bed and took a stroll thru the house.
I made my way downstairs and out onto the patio. The patio was huge with a BBQ and pool. Stools lined the edge of the pool closest to the house. Over by the other set of sliding glass doors was a black mesh love swing mounted to the beams coming off the back of the house.
I knelt down and put my hand into the water and it was warm. I didn't hear a heater or pump so I guess the pool was naturally warm due to the climate. I walked around the pool to see the depths as it went from 3 feet to 7 feet on the far end.
Moving around the pool I found myself near the love swing. Not having used one before but have heard of Joy's tales in it I found myself steadying myself as I sat in it. It felt pretty good, almost weightless as I swung forward and backward.
Checking out the straps and Velcro harness I tugged to see how strong they were. I looked around the pool area then upwards towards the upstairs rooms. No lights so I thought I'd experiment abit.
