Our family is just freshly back from the Carnival Miracle 12/6 – 12/21 round-trip Hawaii, and let me say what a pleasure it was to once again be on the high seas. And I might also add, high they were. Being our 3rd Hawaii round-trip with Carnival at about the same time of year, we expected weather, but the swells this time were steadily rising; our captain, however, did a great job handling the situation, and though it did result in being late to port, and eventually missing Maui completely, he brought the vessel safely into the islands.

Traveling with our daughter and her family, we got to see the vessel and the islands through freshly amazed eyes, and the adventures proved to be everything we could have wanted. Walking in ports, lunch at Keoki’s Paradise in Kauai (a favorite from past journeys), visiting all over Honolulu, and for our son, climbing Diamondhead for an astounding view of the city and ocean below all added up to a wonderful dream come true for them – and us.

In Kona, which we visited for 2 days due to weather challenges in Maui, we first enjoyed the sights and sounds of their street festival, got the lay of the land, and then on the second day took a shuttle to Kahalu’u Beach Park, a sheltered cove where we swam with turtles, multi-colored parrot fish and even an occasional humuhumunukanukaapua’a (the state fish).
