What if the hokey-pokey really is what it’s all about?

So the summer trip to Hawaii is goingto be a no-go, sadly. STV’s parents have one of those timeshare condo things, and we were going to try to use it with two of our other friends (another girlfriend who is turning 30 this year and her husband). We were all excited and started planning, and when we finally settled on where we wanted to stay (there was lots of debate about which island to do), the condo folks … well, they didn’t quite laugh at us on the phone, but they informed us that every single place in Hawaii is booked for … probably the next couple of years. So. Strike that, we’re now back to square one. I’m quite disappointed, as I’d really love to see it. I just have to have faith that I’ll get there one of these days!

We still intend to go SOMEwhere. It think northern california is looking most likely at this time. I’ve never been there and there’s plenty to do. When I first started thinking about doing this trip, I wanted someplace more “exotic,” but my expectations have changed substantially and I think it could be fun. At this rate, I refuse to believe I’m going on ANY trip until something is actually booked…

  1. Kat - I have a hard time believing the condo people, as you can’t buy airfare more than a year out.

    you should look on craigslist, or try this site:

    I went in july of 2005, and stayed at the waikiki gateway hotel. It wasn’t 5-star by any means, but it was affordable, and I made my reservation around this time of the year.
