Nearly two years ago we were on a plane flying from Kauai back to Minneapolis. We were leaving Hawaii two weeks before the end of our planned stay because of the first concerns about COVID in the United States. That was the last time we flew. It seems a long time ago in some ways and as if so little has changed in others.
We are headed back to Kauai again today. I am writing this while waiting in Los Angeles for our flight. We feel a little uneasy flying again, but we have done all we can to protect ourselves. Hopefully, if we catch COVID it will be the new variant and less severe. People are nearly all masked as we travel and this is far different from what we would experience during a regular day, but we are exposed to many more people. I guess we will know in 5 days or so if we picked up something on the trip. We hope to have many guests in Hawaii and understand this is more a concern than the native Hawaiians we would encounter most days. Those staying with us will be more likely to represent the source for an infection. We will just have to trust everyone to be careful. We are the old folks on this outing.
Hopefully, I will be able to post some interesting content in the next few weeks. We like Kauai because it is relaxed and more rural. I try to avoid the sand when possible and get my tan by walking. From where we stay it is about 2 miles to my favorite coffee shop. The seating area is outside, but I have no idea if it is still open or what opportunities we will find. Life is an adventure I am told so whatever happens it will be far warmer than Minneapolis
