Sunday was the day we came home. Our flight didn’t leave until 9:30pm. We stopped by Walmart for some last minute souvenirs. 
 

We stopped by the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific(punch bowl crater)

i saw this statue at the beginning of

Hawaii 5-0(original series) and had always wanted to see it. I had no idea how beautiful this cemetery is

this memorial in the cemetery commemorates the 28,000 solders from WWII, Korea, and Vietnam whose remains were never found or they are missing in action.

Sadly our vacation came to an end. All of our flights were on time and the trip home went very smoothly.

 

Hopefully you will want to return. Nine days just scratches the surface of one island.

 

But thanks for the report and the work it took to do it, it was truly enjoyable.

What a beautiful vacation!

 

Thanks so much for taking us along to see such beautiful and memorable sights.

It goes by so quickly, but glad to hear you made it back home safe and sound.

 

Thanks again for all your time and effort and a really nice trip report!

Thanks for a lovely report!  Our Hawaii cruise for October 2021 was cancelled, so we rebooked for January 2023 (HOPING Covid woes will be in the rearview mirror by then)! Your pictures were beautiful!
