The Islands called us.... and we answered!

The time had arrived!  Up for a 5:30 AM pickup, then to Darren’s, then to the airport!  Hawaii, here we come!  As we are leaving on a jet plane, all of the Northwest of Washington state is getting ready for a big dump of snow.  We missed it by a day!  Halley and Katie, in Minneapolis though were not so lucky!  Their plane had a 4-hour delay and got them to Oahu at 8:45 PM.  The snow and winds there had been merciless, and their original plane developed a wing issue.  They deplaned and boarded a different one, but the whole process took some time.  They were in First Class with lay down beds, so the 8-hour flight would be more comfortable!

We arrived at a much more comfortable time, fought some direction challenges, but got to our rooms and were quite happy.  The view is beautiful… but, the size of this resort is, well, huge.  Not up to what Jerry and I prefer, but good for Halley and Katie with all the shops.  We had lunch and proceeded to take some time for a little rest.  Since the girls were coming later, we a late dinner on the way to the airport. Despite the hiccup in plans, the day was still pretty nice!

Good Day Waikiki!


So, let's have a drink with that meal!!!
