Last July, Jim and I planned a trip to Oahu on January 4, 2012 and return home on January 10. We had a wonderful Christmas and then the Friday before we were to leave for Hawaii, we both starting coming down with colds--bad colds!! I was sick, Sat., Sun., Mon. and on Tues. morning, we decided it would probably be best to NOT go on our trip the next day. But as the day went on...I started to feel better. Jim felt better, too and said: "I just watched "Hawaii 5-0" and I really want to go to Hawaii, so if you feel good enough, let's go tomorrow." I did and we went! Not a much better place to go to finish getting well than Hawaii. We both felt good the whole time we were gone and we both had a great time. So glad we didn't cancel!!! We stayed at the Hawaiian Hilton Village in the Hilton Grand Waikikian Suites. They were condo's and we were on the 29th floor. It was so nice and comfortable. Loved it!!
January 5, was Jim's birthday. We went up to go to the Temple and to the Polynesian Cultural Center. The temple was closed for its 2 wk. maintenance, so we did some other things on the North Shore and stopped on the way back at the Dole Pineapple Plantation. Yummy Pineapple ice cream there!!!! We also ate at a little shop and they gave us free cake even though they didn't know it was Jim's birthday.
Well that looks fun!!! Glad you got to go and that you weren't sick while you were there!
