Precisely what I am thinking

BTW, don't let the posters from the other thread get you down. Only *you* know what's right for *your* family. Sometimes I think that people are so used to reading message boards that they really only skim the posts and react to the 4 or 5 words that jump out that them. Then there are those who like to "stir the pot", hence, my tagline.

Anyway, have a wonderful trip and be sure to tell us all about it when you get back! Can I just say I'm jealous? LOL I'm hoping our family can get back there next year. I swear if we ever win the lotto, we'll be buying a vacation home there, we love it sooooooooo much!

Oh yeah, one more thing: If you can on Sunday, try to get to the Aloha Bowl swap meet. You can get lots of souvenirs for CHEAP and it's a buck (I think) to get in

I have a coupon for PCC. It's buy one adult admission get one free. I'll be glad to try to mail it to you. Or if you know the hotels name I'll mail it there. If this will help you get to see our beautiful island I'll be more than glad to get it to you. Oh, and go to Aloha Swap Meet. You'll find bargains galore. Bargain with those Koreans (I'm married to one)...they'll come down. Don't let them fool you just because of your fare skin. PM me if you need more info. I wish I weren't working or I'd take you and DD around. Next time come on our school intercesion time....first week in Oct. It's been hot and humid this week...like in the high 80's. Don't forget your sandals.

Here's a board similar to this one where you might get some tips---www.Hawaii.com. Actually, Hawaii is starting to replace Disney for us as a vacation destination. Oh, and do check out the Entertainment books. If you can find one valid for this year, they should be cheap--about $9, since many of the coupons expire in November. We found the book to be worth the price, especially for the restaurant coupons.

Come to think of it, I have an Entertainment Book for Hawaii that will expire in Nov., '04. I'd be glad to mail it to you, if you'd like to pm me with your address. At least it wouldn't go to waste--we only used a few coupons for Maui and the BI, none of the Oahu coupons.
