Early this December I went on a wonderful 10-day vacation and cruise to the Hawaiian islands...courtesy of my mom! Thank you so much, mom!!! I love you so much! My mother-in-law, Lydia, also joined us since it has always been a dream of hers to go to Hawaii. So we made it a 'girls' trip.
I lived in Hawaii for about six months when I attended a semester of college back in 1991, and I hadn't been back since. So it was so much fun going back...it brought back so many great memories of the great times I had there and the great friends I made. This time I also explored all the other islands, which was so much fun!
We really lucked out with weather too...two of the rainiest places in the world (Kauai and The Big Island) were 85 degrees and sunny while we were there (which we were told by the locals was very rare!) All of the islands were gorgeous; each island has it's own uniqueness! After seeing them all, I think Oahu is still my favorite island...possibly because I lived there and have so many great memories! But I definitely wouldn't mind going back to any of them! I promised Craig that he could go next time! :-)
You will see from the slideshows of each island - we did A LOT! Every day was action packed to make sure we got to see as much of each island as we could. And we did...though I think there were a few days that the moms were wishing they hadn't let me plan the entire vacation! But hey, how often are you in Hawaii??? I wanted to make sure we did as much as possible.
Enjoy the slide shows...and by the way...just 'X' out of the 'add your review' at the bottom of the slideshows to make sure you see the pictures better. I'm using a new website for my slideshows....so it's a little different.
