Oh no! wekewoody's thread was deleted?? I was going to copy and paste, too, but medical reasons interfered and I didn't get a chance. We haven't been to Hanalei yet and we're pretty sure we're heading to someplace in Hawaii this winter so I was looking forward to saving the information to have for my research.

wekewoody, is there any chance you can post your cut & pastes and I'll be quick about copying and pasting it in case it gets deleted?

wekewoody, thank you so much. I've copied and pasted. I'm sure this information will come in very handy.

Well, I just booked a HNL trip yesterday, for a week, all of it on Oahu, staying at the Marriott Resort, Waikiki. I'll be there in mid-August. I noticed hotel rates are lower once you get past Aug 15th. Glad the bulk of my time is after that date!

Why was Wekewendy's post removed? Was excited to read some more!

Finally can play again...just booked our 12-day trip to Maui for Oct/Nov this year. Was a little late to the game, and the mileage requirement for free tickets jumped to almost double! So, ended up purchasing the flights using a coupon which didn't make it quite so bad. But am pretty excited about staying at the new Andaz Maui in Wailea for 4 nights (we will celebrate our 5th wedding anniversary here) and then a week at the Honua Kai in Kaanapali!

tifa, it wasn't that interesting. Water, beach, rain, bugs, roosters, boring, boring, boring.

We leave Kauai tomorrow, but I can report than we have 200+ days until Maui in February.

120 Days! Woohoo!

Wekewendy - sounds like my kind of vacation! Minus the bugs. and maybe rain, but I don't mind rain on vacation. It actually gives us a chance to take a step back, relax in our hotel/condo, and just chill.

Kal, I was wondering the same thing.

I don't have a sister, but there is a Mr. Woody. His name begins with an "M" though. They only Wendy I knew was Wendy O. Williams of Plasmatics fame and she's no longer with us.

I used to have a Mr. Woody.

But since my Queen knighted it, I have to call it Sir Woody.

Hate to break this to you, but I heard the whales went on strike and have decided to winter in the Fiji islands around Navini. The dolphins and turtles are still holding out for an agreement with the Maui tourism board.

The whales will be back when they figure out what a dump Navini is. It is worse than Kauai.

Just booked a big house on the beach in Oahu's north shore for a family trip--my husband, two adult daughters and their husbands. Can't wait! We're doing mid-April, so that's about.....6 months?
