Yesterday was the 90th birthday of Ripley’s Believe It or Not! And – you better believe it – the SoCalGal Family celebrated this incredibly important date by spending it in the very back row of a full United flight to Kona, Hawaii. The back row, famous for its immediate proximity to the coach bathrooms, is also the repository for a small, but pungent, assortment of smells. We really should have gotten to SeatGuru before it was too late, but there you have it.
And now, on the Big Island, two of us are thrilled to start a day of exploration and relaxation. The other two (of whom I am one) are pretty tired, since the youngest SoCalKid spent the night fighting a losing battle with some germ she picked up on the plane. She SAYS she’s feeling all better, in between hacking coughs. We’ll see. All I know for sure is, the resort is wonderful, the view off our lanai is perfect, and there’s a chance that half my family might have to spend our first day of our Hawaiian vacation inside. Even Ripley would have a hard time believing that.
