We made it!
Our first flight as a family of 5 went off without a hitch and all three kiddos were fabulous on our 5.5 hour trek across the pacific to Hawaii. There is no better feeling than to step off the plane and feel the warmth of the Hawaiian sun! We arrived in the afternoon and set off to get our bags, pick up our car and find our condo.
By the time we arrived in Kihei the crew was getting a little tired - especially Eliza. We were looking forward to getting in and getting her settled down. However, upon walking into our condo I felt my heart sink. It was clear that the condo had not been cleaned from the previous guests. So onto plan B. Luckily we got a hold of the owner and she was able to contact the cleaning lady and property manager to get us into a different unit while ours was being cleaned. She felt terrible for the mix up as for some reason her condo did not get on the list of units that needed to be cleaned. So with time to kill we hit the pool (we had a 4 year old dying to get wet) and ordered in pizza.
By the time supper was over, our condo was clean and everyone was exhausted and ready for bed. Before settling in early we snapped a quick photo of what would be our view for the next eight days. So beautiful!
