Chris drove us to the Max station, where we rode the Red Line right into the airport terminal. Very convenient! We flew Hawaiian Airlines. As usual, flying was not fun, but Hawaiian offers some amenities to make it more pleasant. They serve a complimentary meal and a glass of wine on their long flights. There's no choice of entrees. As the flight attendant told a nearby passenger, it's "eat or no eat." Our lunch featured "Chinese Style Fried Noodles with Vegetables" plus salad and chocolate macadamia candies for dessert. All the portions are quite small, but the meal was pretty good.
We flew to Honolulu and then took an inter-island flight to Kauai. The Honolulu airport has a lovely plant-filled courtyard.
When we landed in Lihue, Kauai, we got on the Alamo shuttle to pick up our rental car, a silver Nissan Verve. We drove the ten miles to our AirBnB apartment in Kapa'a Town, stopping at Safeway to pick up some breakfast items. At first sight, we were very happy with our "Private Tropical Apartment," on the lower level of a house set into a hillside. From our walkway, you could even catch a glimpse of the Pacific.
