Hawaii 2022

Our first post-covid trip to Hawaii. We were fortunate enough to go to this same resort in February of 2020, just before the shit hit the fan. So it was nice to get back after a couple of years.

Hawaii highlights

  • Not exactly a highlight, but Alaska cancelled our flight 8 hours before it was due to leave, with no backup plan! I scrambled to get us on a Delta flight ($$$), and we barely missed half a day.
  • Walked through Byodo-In template, and spent the afternoon at Sunset Beach.
  • Morning walks along the lagoons.
  • BBQing by the beach almost every evening.
  • And once again, we did not get up early enough to walk up Diamond Head. Next time...

Early 2022 so, still masking up on the plane.

The lagoon beach is the best.

Sunsets here never get old.

Byodo-In temple. Great sites, and lots of koi to feed.

Turtle Bay Resort, where Tanja and I got married in 2009. The kids are thrilled to be there!

Coffee sampling at the resort.

It's always a good time for a photo-op!
