[2011] It's not Hawaii!

[danb]

Love of the islands

I identify with all the wonderful posts of Hawaii. 6 months until our trip and it will be one way. We made the move and bought a home in KaMakana. It is under construction and will be finished in 6 months. Looking forward to our retirement there.

Same feeling here.

We had to skip this year and I am still not over it but we have booked for next year and looking forward to the trip is half the fun.

Enjoyed listening to the songs. Hawaii changes my mood immediately as I am smiling now.

Emmy. We will have a drink for the two of you when we make it there (although it's Kauai and not Maui) in November.

We canNOT wait for this especially being a two-weeker, including over the Thanksgiving holiday...It has.been an absolute sprint since May/June with vacations, kids, school,
triple-dutied at work, and fitting two house moves in 2 months time (second being just 2 weeks away). The entire family (yes, even the two little monkeys) could really use some time off, what better place could anyone ask for? It's been about 2 years (i think) since our Maui trip, but it really feels like way too long. If we had our choice, we will go to Hawaii every year, but it is hard with so many other places to ' explore', plus air cost is a consideration.

The 30 day countdown is almost here!

You and your family and Daventrina, enjoy your stay on the Islands. I know that a few other regular Island visitors are going real soon too and March will not be far away.

Ok, more reasons to LOVE Hawaii........My husband and I were talking last night, and he reminded me that our trip to St. Martin was absolutely RUINED by smokers. Everywhere! We actually sat on lawn chairs inside our sliding glass door and watched sailboats on the bay (we were right on the ocean but could not enjoy it) as there were smokers on the balconies on all sides. Yuck. Made our balcony unusable. And it amazes me that people can smoke with one hand while eating with the other. Especially when it is right next to my table.....
So: Go Hawaii! No smoking almost anywhere....restaurants, timeshares, rental cars!
Sigh, going to the Caymans in 5 weeks, wish it was Hawaii.....husband likes to "explore" new places.
Consoling myself with I love ALL vacations, and love to snorkel, and snorkeling in the Caribbean is beyond compare.
