Stuck in HI

T and I received a couple of calls from Jess while in Hawaii.   The scheduled stop in Hilo enabled her to do some exploring of the Big Island and meeting other students and finding groups with similar interests.   She has not been able to forward any photos yet, but described seeing whales reaching for the stars in the distance. 

The Explorer headed to Honolulu for a brief stop to take on fuel.   The stop ended up being longer than expected due to poor weather conditions so the group was permitted an additional day in HI.   The captain and crew did not want a repeat of the 2005 situation.   A link discovered by John M was provided in a previous post.   Jess is anxious to get going to be immersed in new cultures.

Approximately 10% of class work should be completed at this point.
