Last Day in Hawaii

The last day in Hawaii began as usual, sipping coffee on the porch while watching the ocean waves.  The day was cloudier than the past days.  I'm wondering if Hawaii was sad to see us leave? 

No major plans for the day except packing and cleaning up the house.  We had lots of time to kill since the flight would not leave until 10:45 pm.  Yes that is right PM.  Denise, Ted, Ben, and Jacob took off for the beach for an hour or two.  Joshua was in the hot tub all morning.

Heather and I took a quick spin to complete some errands.  We had to pick up a cheap boogie board due to one breaking.  We also needed toilet paper and gas for the truck.

Heather had a lot of packing to do.  Not only did she pack her stuff but also the boys stuff.  She was doing bits of packing in between sitting on the porch watching the ocean.

We all left the house at 3 pm.  The check out time was later due to Mark negotiating the later check out time.  We had lots of time to kill, so everyone but my dad and Bubba went stolling around the shops.  Heather, Jacob, and Joshua bought henna tatoos.  I picked up some coffee and a card for my aunt (she doesn't have a computer). 

Around 5:30 pm, we picked up my dad and Bubba and headed for Bubba Gumps for dinner.  We planned to kill two hours there, but we only stayed for an hour.  Then we drove to get gas at Costco.  My dad is a member and the gas was $4.50 there as opposed to $4.91 elsewhere. 

Of to the airport to sit around.  Ted and I dropped everyone off at the curb while we checked in the trucks.  Then we caught the shuttle to the airport.  Check in was long due to checking in for the flight, Heather checking in the bags for agriculture and the airline.  Then we all went through security and then we went through the carry-on agriculure check.  We sat around for two hours waiting for the airplane.

We boarded the airplane and said good bye to Hawaii.
