So...we had a nice calm morning (our last one) in Maui. We got up about 7:30 and started packing. We were really glad that we bought an extra duffel bag in Maui, and there was plenty of room for all our stuff, new and recently acquired. We were in a cab headed for the airport by 1PM, and headed to Honolulu. Our plan was to get to Honolulu, get in a cab and head to the World War II Pacific National Monument, and have a look see. If our flights are not delayed, there is something wrong. Our flight WAS delayed, but we got to the Memorial with about 30 minutes to spare. We did a quick walk-around and saw what we could see. this sign post was in the middle of the Memorial, and if you look closely, you can see the directional to Schofield Barracks. Schofield Barracks is where Jody was stationed when he was in the service, and he spent 16 months in Hawaii back in 1942. SO, I thought this photo would be appropriate for this post.We got thrown out of the place at 5PM...there was no dilly-dallying around this place. If lightning struck the front doors at 5:00:10, they would need to hire a whole new staff. As we were walking trying to find a cab back to the airport, it started to rain. This is the second time in the past seven days that we have wandered around in the rain. But it was okay.
We are waiting on our flight to San Francisco now. We should be boarding the plane in about another hour, and leaving in about 90 minutes. Back in Austin tomorrow afternoon...OGG to HNL to SFO to AUS.
Deeds, Actions, Changes, SCHOFIELD, Kindnesses, Whirled Peas, FUN!
