On Thursday, our first day out and about, we decided to drive to the Hawaii Kai area to check out Kona Brewing. The early part of the drive through Honolulu is pretty standard hectic city driving. I was talking to Dad on the phone and noticed the signal cut out. All of a sudden we […]

We are staying at Aulani, a resort north of the airport on the western side of the island. We had a long trip Wednesday from Philadelphia to Memphis to Los Angeles to Honolulu. The combination […]

Safari view
We always enjoy the safari ride at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. This beauty was peeking at us as we road by.

So we had a flight of tasters that included a couple of IPAs, a coppery ESB, porter and the Men’s Room Red. Our favorites tonight were Space Dust […]
