Day 129

Sunday, May 6, 2012

After the great waves and sunset we had a quiet night, to awaken in Honolulu! And another view. Then it was off the boat under our own steam (and carrying our own luggage…quicker that way!) and off to the airport!  It was $9.95 for a whole day of internet at the airport…not the 40 cents […]

Saturday, May 5, 2012

As we left Lihue and headed for the Napali Coast, the bow waves from the NCL Pride of America were fascinating!  (All of the photos are wallpaper sized.) Here is a 100% sized crop of the wave above. The wind was blowing the top off of almost every wave. It moved an amazing amount of […]

Day 125: The Napali Coast…the other way?

Wednesday, May 2, 2012

After cruising the length of the Napali Coast, the NCL Pride of America turned around and sailed back the other way, past Lihue on the way to Oahu.  So the folks on the other side of the ship got to see the Napali Coast under the setting sun, and I took sunset photos.  It got […]

Day 123: The Napali Coast!

Sunday, April 29, 2012

The official Napali Coast is only 17 miles long.  It only took and hour or so to cruise by in the NCL Pride of America.  This is looking back towards Princeville and Lihue. […]
