We started our trip very early on January 2nd, waking at 3:30 am to be on the road before 4:30. We drove to LA and dropped our car off and then took a shuttle to LAX. After checking our bags with Hawaiian Airlines, we made it our gate an hour early. We were able to sit together on a large airbus A330, one of the largest planes I've flown on! The flight was 5 1/2 hours long from LAX to OGG (Kahului airport). We were served a small breakfast and had complementary drinks. We slept, watch TV shows, and looked out the window at the Pacific ocean below. We landed at 11:00 am Hawaii time and then headed to baggage claim while texting with the car rental place. After getting our bags and car, we drove to the local Walmart to pick up the groceries we need for the week. We then drove to an area where they had food trucks parked and ate some shrimp and chicken entries with white rice and pasta salad. We quickly noticed that roosters roam freely here and will hunt for handouts! We were ready for a nap to recharge so we headed to our condo in Kihei. The views on the way there were spectacular! We rested and then headed across the street from our condo to get a closer look at the ocean. We found a local spot for burgers and fries, ate in our condo and then headed to bed. Tomorrow the fun begins!
