Hawaii
November 17-26, 2006

Thanksgiving day, 2005, Mom, Dad, Mark, and I sat around the dinner table in Mesa talking about what a great time we'd be having if we were in Hawaii. Dad said, jokingly, that we should go there for Thanksgiving next year. And of course... we held him to it. This was such a fun trip, and definitely a busy one. We spent most of the time (the first six days) on Oahu. The last two days we spent on the "Big Island" of Hawaii. I feel like there was a ton more we could have done on Oahu if we had had the time. It will have to wait for another trip.
