Guess what--we are back in Honolulu!!! We are all elated. There is a big storm in the Pacific between us and San Diego--so the powers that be, mainly Captain Jeremy and the Deans, decided not to run us into the storm, which the Internet has already told us has swells of 60 to 80 feet high, (Captain Jeremy's decision). The reason we couldn't stay in Hilo, where we had just spent two days in the rain, is that there is only one berth in the harbor for a ship such as ours. The ship that has the berth next was already in the harbor waiting for us to pull out so that they could dock. The only tourist attractions in Hilo are the Walmart and Hilo Hatties. We had all been out in the center of the island to see the volcanos in the rain and vog. We were ready to leave, especially for our favorite sunny Honolulu!
We spent another two days in Honolulu and are now in realitively calm seas headed for our final destination, the port at san Diego.
Captain Jeremy say we are the fastest ship in the oceans and we will arrive right on schedule just by cranking up the speed. I will say we are skimming right along!
