Has Everyone gone to Hawaii?

This used to be a very active board but it seems that 'attendance' has dropped off lately. Its probably because I am planning my trip and I am noticing less participation than usual. Where is everyone?

I dearly love Hawaii, but haven't been since 2000--too expensive, and I live on the West Coast! Florida, California aren't quite as great as Hawaii IMO, but sooo much cheaper!

Most likely you're right, every year we slow down during the summer months.

Only the unfortunate ones like myself are still here going to that dreaded 4-letter w-word (WORK) to make money for future trips

And just for the record, never been to Hawaii. Maybe that's why I am here, not there?

I'm here counting down the weeks until my next trip...six weeks yet to go... haven't been anywhere since February and am itching to leave town!

We took our second trip to Hawaii in January 2005.

My Hawaiian trips are usually winter ones. And this year I went to Mexico instead.

Hi Kal. We went to Kauai about 4 years ago but we are going again. We will spend 3 nights at the Hale Koa in HNL, 5 nights at Lae Nani (Outrigger) on Kauai and 9 nights at the Ka'anapali Alii. Can't wait.
