Travel to Hawaii


Our day started at 5am and we woke up Juliet at 6:45.  Meme arrived at 7 and we were at IAH around 7:30.  We had a 9:30 flight that left about 15 minutes late.  We bought Juliet a seat and took her car seat on the plane with us.  This turned out to be a really good thing because she was very comfortable.  She only took a 35 min nap in the morning and a 45 minute nap in the afternoon so she was very cranky for the last part of the flight.  She was not interested at all in getting back on the plane in Honolulu to Maui.  Her favorite thing about the plane was the running up and down the isles, and let me tell you how happy that made the others on the flight.

Gramma and Granddaddy met us at the airport with beautiful leis and water waiting.  They drove us back to the resort and we stopped by Maui Tacos for fish tacos.  We were so hungry since it was 10 pm our time.  We stopped by to get milk and it was $10 a gallon.  I almost laughed.  Apparently the nice little guy who checked me out had pity and let me use one of their magic card and it cut it down to $7.20.  The markup is amazing.


We made it to the hotel with Juliet still awake and running around.  She made it until midnight TX time before she went to sleep.  Outside our hotel is tiki torches reflecting off the ocean and the beautiful lagoon blue pool, there is music playing and you can hear the waves crashing.  Then she only slept 4 hours and got in bed with us.  We were up at 4 am playing and unpacking.
More Later
Aloha
