i had a little cottage bout a block off the beach in
maui. it was one of the less popular beaches. if you
like to be in the more popular areas lahainna would be
good. i dont know if i spelled that right.
no matter where you stay get the limits on the
credit card up. it is paradise, but, paradise is not
cheap.
have fun, mag. like i said i'd like to go back.
my bud in hilo just sent me a pair of medals
commerating the honolulu coin club. if i could afford
it, such a nice place to retire.
i have no intentions of going coach, but was told
that business class and first were not to much
different on some airlines, but really different on
some. i think i'd be doing quanta, but, not sure. as
many trips as i have been able to do online prep for,
i think an agent is going to be a must when i do this
one. it is going to be a huge trip. it is probably a
few years off if i wait for enough FF miles to go
first class.
