Think of it as a floating hotel. As you may know, you'll start and finish in Oahu and overnight at Maui, visit Hilo and Kona on the Big Island, overnight at Kauai and do a sail-by of the Napali coast in seven days. We did this a 4 years ago with a 3 day pre cruise land tour package it is a older ship but overall it was fabulous.

PCWalton1 Posted September 30, 2019 Author #254 Share Posted September 30, 2019 We had a wonderful and tasty day here in Kailua Kona. We elected to stay in town, do some shopping, eating and football game watching. Lots of people fishing todaySent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PCWalton1 Posted September 30, 2019 Author #257 Share Posted September 30, 2019 (edited) Stopped at Kona Haven for iced coffee and to eat the rambutan we bought at the market Then we stopped in Humpy's alehouse to watch most of the Seahawks game (they won) and enjoyed some clams And as I posted earlier we made a stop at Fish Hopper for lunch before heading back to the ship to be greeted by luggage tags in the stateroom. 😥 Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk Edited September 30, 2019 by PCWalton1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coralc Posted September 30, 2019 #258 Share Posted September 30, 2019 (edited) Those clams look great! Different shell markings than PNW steamers. We will have to go there next time we visit the islands. Thanks for the recommendation. Awesome Bloody Mary!

PCWalton1 Posted September 30, 2019 Author #260 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Doing the usual hurry up and wait. On number 17 so just two more to go. Waiting in the bionic bar. More relaxing than the theater. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCWalton1 Posted October 1, 2019 Author #261 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Lacking wifi so will post when i can. What a turnaround. In one day leaving the hustle and bustle of thousands of cruise passengers to the quiet Molokai. We arrived at Molokai airport after changing planes at Honolulu airport as the first plane broke. We'r grabbed our car in the parking lot (the key was under the mat). After getting settled in our room in the hotel we went shopping fir supplies then went to Paddlers for dinner. Great food, drinks and music. I am a sucker for neighborhood football so i bought a ticket Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nextholiday? Posted October 2, 2019 #264 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Read up on this island. The Molokai hotel sounds good. Plus to get a feel of the “old” Hawaii. Looking forward to more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCWalton1 Posted October 2, 2019 Author #265 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Yesterday for lunch we went Kualapuu Cookhouse, good food. Katsu chicken for me and teriyaki beef for Marie. On the front of the menu it said "if you are in hurry you are on the wrong island ". Actually it only took about a half hour to get the food. Like some of the places here, cash only.

PCWalton1 Posted October 2, 2019 Author #266 Share Posted October 2, 2019 We made a trip to Papohaku Beach park also known as Three Mile Beach. One of Hawaii's longest beaches but usually no one there. We saw about 8 people. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PCWalton1 Posted October 3, 2019 Author #271 Share Posted October 3, 2019 After lunch we headed up to Kalaupapa Lookout. The Kalaupapa Overlook provides a scenic overview of the Kalaupapa Peninsula from the edge of a 1600ft cliff. It's easy to get the lay of the land from up here and you'll get a good feel for just how far you'll travel if you descend the nearly 1700ft on the trail.The Kalaupapa peninsula was home to a leper colony for over 100 years. The book i just finished reading (Molokai) is historical fiction about that colony so i wanted to see the peninsula.
