Flying Across Country & Lunch With Shirley

 On a new adventure with my Man!
We had planned to see Justine in Hawaii as she finished her 1st year in College.
Unfortunately, she decided to come home early and only do 2 semesters.
So after some excrutiating deliberation, we decided to go without the kids, 
versus having to go through the hassle of trying to rebook this prime location 
(which takes a year to get, and more money spent).

I felt a little guilty leaving the kids this time, 
but then I though about all the great adventures they will go on in their life, 
as they grow and become successful little people!
Not to mention the impossibility of paying for airfare for all of us!
And that Justine is there everyday when in college enjoying Paradise.
So she is home with Emric, Amelie and Chloe.
They also have some pretty awsome activities ths summer...

So here we are, Mike and I, so excited, flying towards Paradise!


Minneapolis airport where every one has free access to an Ipad, 
free Internet and whole food shops for lunch and snacks!
The most techno advanced and comfy airport I've ever been to!


LA where houses upon houses are seen as far as the eye can see...


Obviously this is NOT Rush hour traffic!


 It was a long trip.
We used a companion fare with Delta Mike had earned to get to Los Angelos, 
with a plane change in Minneapolis.
Then from LA to Honolulu we used half our Sky Miles!

While in LA we had the joy of having lunch with aunt Shirley at the airport during our 3 hour lay-over.
She brought us a huge bag of almonds and cranberries we have been snacking on constantly!
She is so sweet and adorable!
We love her to bits!
