The big summer trip to Hawaii!
August/September 2003
Oahu

Oahu - Waikiki - Maui -


We spent Saturday night in LA, near the airport. The next morning we got to the aiport the requisite 2 hours early, only to find the flight delayed 4 hours. Ugh! We sat in the Admiral's club for several hours. Christie studied while Allie watched some videos on Dad's laptop.

We finally make it to the hotel on Oahu, but Allie's had enough.
