We arrived back in Honolulu this morning while we were still asleep. After a relatively early breakfast we were able to depart the Pride of America by 09:00 and soon we were on our way back to the Aston Waikiki Beach Hotel.
Last night after we sailed from Nawiliwili, the ship travelled to the northern part of Kaua'i for a special close up of the Na Pali coast line which is world famous and has been the subject of countless feature and documentary films. The ship moved right in to within 1km of the coast line which consist of stark lava cliffs rising straight from the sea.
As the sun slowly set the ship finally turned and set course for Honolulu.
We had our final dinner last night and enjoyed an outstanding wine, Esser Merlot from the Napa Valley. Must check to see if Dan Murphy's can get hold of some. After dinner we attended the final show in the Hollywood Theatre, which was outstanding and the finale came when staff from all departments of the ship appeared on stage. A great ending to a wonderful trip. Tomorrow the shuttle to the airport picks us for out trip to the airport, with lift-off at 12:30. This is the last blog entry before we arrive home, so from Hawaii its Aloha!!
