Hawaii At Last
Just back from a magical week in Hawaii! What a beautiful place it is.
LO is with the first photo I snapped after being awake for two days en route to HI- all worth it! My eyes were blurry and so is the picture, but I still like it well enough.

Ever since you were briefly stationed at Schofield Barracks in Oahu in 1968 you talked about the day we would visit Hawaii together. I used to write letters to you from high school homeroom and send them airmail to your HI Army address, but could not imagine this beautiful garden island which you described in your daily letters to me.
Forty one years later, we finally took our long planned vacation together. It was a magical week of visiting the tropical paradise you had described so long ago. We drove around the island and saw beautiful views of the ocean, cliffs and sky. We went to a luau and saw a wonderful show called "HA." We met other visitors from all over the world. We did a lot of walking and shopping, and visited the zoo and the aquarium. The weather was very hot and the trade winds had also taken vacation, so we drank a lot of Starbucks Iced Mocha Frappuccinos!
It was a perfect week which I shall never forget. Let's not wait so long to go there again!
