Retirement trip to Hawaii

Picture
This was a great way to kick off our retirement adventures.  15 day cruise to Hawaii on Carnival.  The night before we stayed on the the old steamship Queen Mary.  This is now set up as a hotel/museum and a great way to see how far cruising has come since the 20's. It was great to see the more rural areas of the Hawaiian islands.  We found out that there are thousands of wild chickens and cats on the islands.  Genuine Kona Joes coffee is the best coffee we have ever had. And we learned that medium roast coffee has more caffeine than dark or espresso roast. 
On long cruises you have lots of reading time with not much else to do so it forced us to embrace the retirement lifestyle.  We spent our time sitting in the sun, humming Christmas carols, reading and talking to people interrupted only by the occasional trip to the ice cream machine.
