This morning I flew from Kaua`i to O`ahu on Southwest. I spent the day in Waikiki as it wasn’t the best weather (a bit of rain) and I wasn’t in the mood to drive around much.

2020 Hawaii Trip [Day 7 – Kaua`i, Hawaii]
I woke up early this morning to fly near Anahola because of the interesting mountain that was actually featured in King Kong. Because it is on the east side of the island the lighting is best in the morning. After checking in for my flight tomorrow I went snorkeling at Lydgate Park which was much better than I expected. In the afternoon I took an amazing helicopter ride around the island.

2020 Hawaii Trip [Day 0]
This morning I checked in for my flights. No upgrades on the way to Hawaii on any of the legs, but I did select seats with additional leg room. It’s not very easy to get to Kaua`i. American doesn’t have any direct flights to LAX from Austin (or Houston) at the moment. I’m still waiting…
