More COVID testing stress, interspersed with Maui Nui

 After hardly sleeping subsequent to the disappointing call to CVS helpline, I had decided I would try again, under the disbelief that I could not find a way to pay for testing.  I called again and this time got a much more helpful representative who thoroughly checked the situation over, and came to the same conclusion.  The testing can only be scheduled online and the website cannot accept non-US based credit cards.  Back to the drawing board.  The Maui medical clinic walk in option is still available.  But wait - a new message from WestJet while on the golf course!  Seems like the fed's have expanded the acceptable test protocol to include the RT-LAMP test, which is apparently a "rapid test" providing results in short order.  We quickly looked up rapid testing and found another clinic in Kahului that offered something that sounded right.  The golfing worked out better as we had an early tee time, and Myles had a great round with lots of good shots and a couple of just missed birdie chances. We were actually finished in 4 hours at 12:30 pm and ready for a Maui Brewing Company lunch - but sadly, the don't open till 3:00 pm, so scuppered there.  No worries, off to the permanent food truck spot where we had a great lunch before heading back to the condo for yet more COVID test research.  Turned out that the rapid test offered by Doctors On Call Maui is not the RT-LAMP test after all, which stands to reason.  But wait, the PCR test is available on a walk in basis with results typically returning in 24 - 48 hours.  I spoke with two helpful staffers to confirm all of this and hatched a plan to head into Kahului circa 10:00 am and hope for the best.  While all of this was going on, Myles and Karen were happily sun bathing at the pool (first visit to the pool) while Matthew waded in the fish pond and exercised a constitutional event followed by a disappointing viewing of the World Junior gold medal game - USA emerging victorious from this most unusual COVID compromised tournament.  Karen and Myles wrapped up the the day by preparing a lovely and light meal with whatever provisions they could find.
