Hawaii is the most amazing place! You sure are fortunate to live there!

Do you ever get Island Fever? Doe is help to hop over to another Island?

I DO! Big time..so I am going to Hana for two days after Thanksgiving..to take pictures and for something different and rain..then in December I'll stay at the Ritz in Kapalua (For LUX fun, to pretend I'm a tourist for a couple of nights!)..then I need a cold fix and will fly to Seattle for it! And to shop..we have no where to shop here at all. Sarting in February..I am going to try and visit every island here to take pictures..so yes, I need to get off the island or do something often. #8137924

When I as 18 I got a job at the Airlines near San Francisco...at 19 I was offered a position at the Airport in HNL...I turned it down but now I wish I had done it! Sigh...So I flew there there as often as I could. I have made the flight just under 25 times RT (So 50 flights over the OCEAN) to get there and back! I LOVE HAWAII!!!

I turned it down because I as warned over and over about the Island Fever.

:(

I hope you have fun hopping around!

-Laura :)

(3:33 am here! Heading to bed soon!)
Aloha! #8137956

1am here..just got back from my walk..you really don't get island fever on Oahu..so much there..we are in the sticks here..but I like the slower pace..just have to get off or do something different once a month! Glad you could visit so many times!!! #8138072
