Welcome to ALOHA! Sun, Sand and Surf!Alexa and I, (me, that's Victoria because I still can't figure out how not to post as ThreeSisters!), are currently in the plannig stages of our trip to Hawai'i this December. We are packing tonight. We leave Saturday, December 11 at 7:30 in the morning and will arrive in Honolulu by 4 pm. One of the troubling things is that, according to our e-tickets, we do not have assigned seats. We plan on getting to the airport earlier than normal in order to try to get seats together. Our tickets were purchased separately. Through a bit of luck, we managed to get Alexa on the same flights.
Victoria is scheduled to be at a conference, Pacifichem (
http://www.pacifichem.org) on December 15-20. I've organized a Symposium, "Polymeric Materials from Renewable Resources" which has 32 presentations over 2 days and over 20 posters. One of the nice things about my employment is the ability to take vacation around official travel.
Victoria has been to Hawai'i twice: once with her Sisters for a cruise and once for a collaborative meeting between US and Japanese scientists. This is Alexa's first trip to Hawai'i.
We hope to make daily postings to this blog with pictures!
Thanks for joining us!
