Hawaii is Getting Closer

Our Hawaii vacation is getting closer and closer.  Flights, hotels, car, and excursions are all paid for.  I could add it all up, but I am kind of scared to know how much we spent.  We have a pretty booked schedule.  We wanted to see and do as much as possible while we are there.

I think we are going to have a pretty memorable 10 year anniversary.  That day we are taking a helicopter tour over Kilauea volcano, and that evening we are heading to the top of Mauna Kea to do some star gazing.  It should be a fun time.  On our honeymoon we went to the top of Pikes Peak, and Mauna Kea is at a similar elevation.  I’m not sure if there will be any snow up there this time of year, but I am kinda hoping I can throw a snowball in Hawaii.

Right now I am debating if I should just use the hotel’s wifi or rent a mifi for my internet access.  The hotels charge $12 a day, but I can rent a mifi for $8 a day.  I just wish I knew which one was faster.  I am leaning towards the mifi since it’s cheaper, and it will give me internet access on the go too, including the airports that don’t have free wifi.

It should be a great vacation.  I am really looking forward to learning a lot about Hawaii.  Neither the Wife or I really like to relax on vacations.  We like to get out and see and learn as much as possible.  That’s what we consider fun.  We can relax all we want on our couch when we get back.
