Hawaiian Cruise

Hawaii Cruise 1 2-Day Hawaiian Cruise October 3-15, 2005 Aloha Everyone! Hawaii is absolutely beautiful! Our itinerary was as follows: 10/3 Honolulu - Boarded Carnival Spirit 10/4 Honolulu - Departed at 6PM 10/5 Arrive Nawiliwili, Kauai 10/6 Arrive Kahalui, Maui 10/7 Arrive Lahaina, Maui 10/8 Arrive Kona, Hawaii 10/9 Arrive Hilo, Hawaii We were at sea from 10/10 to our arrival at Ensenda, Mexico on 10/15. We then boarded busses to San Diego or Los Angeles for our trip home. One of things to do when visiting Hawaii is to tour the islands. The scenery is breathtaking. The mountains, the craters, the flowers, the clouds. Words cannot describe Hawaii. One must see it for themselves. Seeing pictures of the Arizona Memorial is one thing, but to see it in person is a very moving experience. After the Arizona, we toured the submarine USS Bowfin and then on to our sister ship USS Missouri. Some of us toured the engine room of the Missouri. Our thanks to Dick Hamann and his friend Stan Nicholls for arranging these tours for us. For this cruise we all wore yellow t-shirts, compliments of the Cruise Connection. Of course, we took a group photo , compliments of our Wisconsin Association. Our cocktail party was hosted by Carnival Cruise Lines. Thanks to Claire and Dick Hamann for another great cruise! Looking forward to our next one in 2007. 1 Approaching Oahu 2 3 4 You can see Pearl Harbor from this vantage point. 5 Some of us climbed to the summit of 763' of Diamond Head Crater. 6 It started out with the sun and ended with heavy rain 7 8 9 This was taken just below the summit of Diamond Head 10 The famous Diamond Head as seen from Waikiki Beach 11 Underwater photos taken from Atlantis submarine 12 13 14 15 16 17 On our way to the Polynesian Cultural Center 18 Great Show!! 19 Sorry for the out of focus pictures.
