You have the Hawaii fever. I know, I am suffering from the same ailment.

Wishing you great times. Kauai?

We are returning in May. My husband won a three day trip that we have expanded into 16! He even won the airfare so that made it extra special INDEED!

Well, we head to Kona again in March for 3 weeks. It's practically our second home. (Don't I wish!)

First time ever for us to Hawaii in March 2010...five islands with Road Scholar aboard Pride of America. But first came a few days in Honolulu incl. visit to U.S.S. Arizona Memorial. It was 70 years ago today that Pearl Harbor was attacked. A pause to remember.

Just put award tickets on hold for 2 weeks next October. We'll be flying into Kona, stay for 4 nights, then fly to Maui for the remainder of our stay. It's been way too long since we've been to Hawaii and I'm really excited!!

DH and I will escape Chicago winter in early January for our condo in South Maui. Returning late February. We've only touched base in Honolulu briefly in the last ten years. DH and I had spent two to four weeks on all of the four major islands for years before being tempted to buy. This is the longest we've stayed. (We'll see how we do in only 1000 sq ft of space for two months! LOL)

I was reminded of "Hawaiian clothes" charnees when viewing "The Descendants" movie. Traveling from most places in the U. S. you have to shed winter wear for summer wear...and colorful at that!
