Day 93: Maui! pt 1

Tuesday, April 3, 2012

The sun rose as we slowly cruised into Maui.  We had to get moving because we had scheduled a Road to Hana tour… Out on the road we started with a nice rainbow… Of course, rainbows frequently come with…rain…this is the little road we were on.  The Road to Hana comes complete with warnings against […]

Day 89: Onboard the Pride of America!

Monday, April 2, 2012

It was a very orderly boarding of the Pride of America, but we still had about a three and a half hour wait until our stateroom was ready.  The ship carries 2200-2400 passengers, and all of those staterooms have to be cleaned and refitted between about 10am and 3pm.  We looked around a bit, and […]

Day 88: Our last morning on Oahu!

Monday, April 2, 2012

We had to be out of our room at the Ko Olina by ten, and the boarding at Pier 2 started at noon.  Here is a nice few of the center of the resort. A Black Crowned Night Heron over by the golf course! A short Cattle Egret.  They seem as numerous in Hawai’i as […]

The Dailylife Wife’s lemonade… Our lunch: Nachos! A small part of Waikiki Beach. […]

Day 86: Around Honolulu…

Friday, March 30, 2012

The day started with another nice buffet at the longboard, with the birds… Spotted dove. They don’t hold still much, but I got one a little more in focus! “What?  I don’t remember posing for this stupid sign!” We actually got stopped by a train!  It was a school excursion at the Hawaiian Railway Society! […]

Day 85: The end of the day at last!

Wednesday, March 28, 2012

After the Polynesian Cultural Center we headed on around the Island to get back to the Ko Olina.  Here are a few of the sights we saw! (All photos by the Dailylife Wife: I was driving!) What is that up in the sky? Why, it is people who step off of cliffs and fly like […]

Na Ali’i O Hawaii (King and Queen) Samoa Fiji makes a splash! Tahiti Closeup! Hawaii Spreading flower pedals! An interesting […]
