This is the first time we have intentionally been away from home during the Christmas and New Year holidays. Many times we have thought about it but somehow it never before happened. So here we go! On December 21, 2010 we fly to LA then on the 22nd we sail with the Golden Princess for a two week, four island cruise.

We will enjoy Christmas while en route to Hilo and New Years after leaving Lahaina. Between Christmas and New Years we visit four islands, Hawaii, Oahu, Kauai and Maui and finally we make a short “Jones Act” stop in Ensenada, Mexico before returning to Los Angeles.
