The shuttle got us directly to the airport with little traffic, we did self check-in, got John some breakfast, and by that time we were called to board! SMF is an easy airport! Our flight was uneventful with a bit of turbulence at the end. The pilot warned us of that and it wasn't bad. It was certainly warmer than we expected in September but lovely. We took the shuttle to Advantage car rental only to find a very long line of customers. We joined them of course, I would imagine it was an hour wait if not more. As always they offered special prices to "update" our vehicle from mid-sized to something else. A Jeep Wrangler was one of the updates, and if the kids were with us we would have gotten it. However, we ended up with a Mazda 5, which holds 6 and has the body of a mini van. Nice enough. After finally getting the vehicle we headed toward Kihei without a stop! No Costco this time (though we will go browse) because we don't need large quantities. While we were finishing up at Safeway we got a call that the condo was ready for us! The timing was perfect. After checking in and schlepping our stuff upstairs we relaxed then headed to Moose Mcgillycuddys for a Happy Hour and appetizers - YUM! We had potato skins along with this HUGE Pupu platter. We brought home the leftovers! We drove back (I forgot how close it was, we could have walked) and then took a walk on the beach. The weather was perfect, though still overcast and we could not see a sunset. We are in HAWAI'I and love it here!
