Seven is going to get her trip to Hawaii. We embark Holland America's Zaandam in San Diego for a 15 day cruise to the Hawaiian Islands and Ensenada, Mexico. We will stop in Hilo, Kailau-Kona, Honolulu, and Kahaina in Hawaii. We have planned so far a snorkeling adventure and a whale watching trip. We will, of course, take in the attractions in the Pearl Harbor area and Volcanoes National Park. We are renting a car in Hilo and Honolulu and relying on public transportation in Kona and Kahaina. It should be a blast.On the way to San Diego we are stopping in Yuma to visit friends we made in Colorado last summer while work camping at Redstone Camp Ground south of Carbondale. They are from Kansas so we will be watching the Jayhawk - Texas Tech game on 3/3/08 with them. Rock Chalk Jayhawk!!!!!
In San Diego we will try to work in a tour of the Marine Corps Recruit Depot (known as Hollywood when I suffered through the Marine boot camp at Parris Island 46 years ago) so Seven can get a idea of what poor little old me went through a long time ago on another planet.
When we get back from the cruise we hope to go to Sea World and the famous San Diego Zoo. Finally, we are going to a special place - Canine Companions for Independence in Oceanside,CA where they train companion dogs.

We met Trixie at a Dean Koontz book signing in Tustin, CA five or six years ago. We didn't get her pawgraph but we could tell she was really special dog. A memorial to Trixie by Dean Koontz.
