Yesterday morning, we woke Finley up just after 5 am to head to the airport for our trip to the Big Island of Hawaii.  We flew to Denver, had a two hour layover and then it was direct to Kona.  Finley had her first experience in the United Club during the layover, she was a big fan of the blueberry muffins.  Finley did great on the two hour flight to Denver, but I was nervous about the 7 hour flight to Kona.  Finley was fantastic!  She has become a pro at travelling and even took a nice nap on the flight.  We played the halfway to Hawaii game, colored, stickered and watched a couple episodes of Dora the rest of the time.  Finley didn't even watch a movie!  At the airport, a gentleman gave Finley an orchid lei. We got our rental Jeep and headed over to the resort for some swimming.  Those pictures are on our waterproof camera, so I will post them later.  Finley was full of energy and so very excited to be in Hawaii.  We headed out to dinner  after some beach time, with the time change it was nearly midnight in Finley's world.  She ended up eating one grape and was carried back to our room, she had hit her limit!
