The last night we on the island we got a taste of the fresh coconut water,
and then the local coconut liquor.

We got up at 3 am to finish packing. The 45 minute drive to the airport at 4:30 am in an open air truck was amazing. The stars were bright, the breeze was strong. Once at the airport our gear and luggage was checked by hand, then we waited. Only 5 people got on the 737-700 towards Honolulu, our team and one other young man.
