Honolulu, Hawaii and the Super Bowl
Our altogether too short of stay was great. Even though we had heavy rains, we enjoyed a car ride around Oahu stopping from time-to-time to enjoy the sites and take some pictures. It was an inaugural visit for our friends, the Fennessey’s and they were blown away by the Aloha and beauty of the Pacific Paradise. After the tour, we ended for a late lunch and Mai Tai at the Moana Surfrider on Waikiki beach. Then a long walk on the beach and enjoyed the surfers doing their thing. Overall, a good day.
On Sunday, we had a direct feed into the ship and enjoyed the Super Bowl, WOW! Larry lost a little money on this one, but it was worth it; best super bowl I’ve ever seen.
Realizing Honolulu was our last US port of call on our voyage, we made good use of our cell phone and enjoyed voice to voice catch up reports on the news from home. We will now be out of cell phone contact as our service does not afford global access. So keep those blogs coming! Yes, Sandra, we did get your blog…and thank you. We very much enjoy reading everyone’s news and comments. Dale, thanks for the Citrus weather report. Glad to hear no damage was down to our home in the wind. Next stop, Pago Pago, American Samoa!

Hi Lor and Ruthanne,
Your back and feeling well that's great news. Sounds as if you're having the times of your lives. So glad you're home is fine in the Citrus. Ruth Ann I didn't know you were interested in painting that's fantastic! You're posted painting is beautiful. Everything is fine here for the moment. We're taking Jerry's dad out for his 90th birthday tomorrow. Love, Gailpeterpet
Hi L. and R.
Please excuse the crazy last name on the last comment. It sounds hilarious but I couldn't remember my password for google and obviously that was the wrong one. Remember when I had a cat named peter? Well, that's where it came from.
Love ya both, Gail
I feel like saying bon voyage all over again. It seems now the journey begins. We received the card of the ship, the boys love it. I posted it in the kitchen so they can see it everyday. I am glad to hear you are both enjoying yourselves. Have a great sail and we will wait for the next blog! Love you both.
Happy days!! Pity Tucker wasn't with you Ruthanne. He'll howl the house down when you return. Did I tell you in my last comment that we've played that abominable train game about two weeks ago with two of our neighbours (they've now gone to France - I don't blame them) and some friends who played it in the US are coming for dinner and "trains" to-morrow evening; they're crazy about it. See what you've gotten me into Larry.
Best from Alec & Isobel. Include a reference in your next blog to let me know you're getting these comments.
Hello from Virginia Beach, VA~
We're with Clifford's sister and family now and are having a fun family time. We stopped at Kitty Hawk, No. Carolina and walked up the hill that Wilbur and Orville took off with their gliders from...what a great exhibit they have there and it was very awesome to be there and relive those exciting moments of first flight. I know you both are seeing and doing new and exciting things as you plow through the ocean waves. It must be really wonderful.
It's fun to read all the blogger's comments too and know that all the extended family and your friends are enjoying this trip with you as well. We head back to the west coast on Feb. 12th and will take the month to get back for Mom's
90th.
Party On! and be well...
Love and hugs to you both,
Chrissy and Clifford xx
If i had bet money, I would have lost too. What a great game though. I can't wait to hear more about your travels now that you're heading into the great Pacific. Tropical skies must be pretty rough for you. I'm sure you miss all this grey and rain terribly. Love you both! xoxome
