Well, all good things must come to an end. My dad insisted that we leave 3 hours before flight time, and it's a good thing we did. There was a terrible accident on the main highway, and we had to take a detour, along with thousands of other people. It took over two hours to drive 30 miles because of the heavy traffic. We got to the airport about 1/2 hour before flight time, but they sent us to the head of the line to check our bags and we made it. I like the Kona airport - even in this age of heightened security, it seems small and friendly.
It was overcast in Kona, and raining by the time we touched down in Maui 15 minutes later. We got to Honolulu with just enough time to get to our next flight, which was uneventful. As we approached LAX, we could see lightning down below us in the clouds, which looked really interesting. We arrived at LAX just before 11:00 pm, got to our car at midnight, and made it home before 2:00 am.
