		<description><![CDATA[Maui has weathered intermittent bus service over the years.  More recently, Roberts Hawaii has shouldered the challenge and runs the Maui Bus to most parts of the island.  If you’re looking for a quick way to get from place to place, don’t take the bus.  But if you don’t mind waiting an hour or more between rides in the hot sun, sure, go ahead.]]></description>

Aside from his religious work, Bailey was a principal at a girls’ school, a sugar company manager, and a painter.

Though it’s not as easy as it looks, with a few lessons, you’ll be cruising in no time.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Six nights a week, the 78-seat theater at the Lahaina Center is almost always filled to capacity.  Visitors and locals flock here to see the hilariously funny sleight of hand performers, as well as sip cocktails with Annabelle the ghost in the parlor while she plays all your favorite songs.  Book as far ahead as possible, though—tickets sell out faster than you can say abracadabra!]]></description>
