First Impression of Hawaii

After 11 hours of flight time it felt wonder to land in Hawaii.  We were all exhausted and ready to get to the Turtle Bay Resort.  Little did we know that it would take 1 1/2 hours of driving to get there.  You could get there going east or west on the interstate.   Of course it was backup both ways.  But one thing really stuck out to me.  The other drivers were really friendly.  When I let someone it, I got a big wave.  When I let in the second person, I got a big wave.  Same for the third and fourth person.  Then I cut off off.  Yep, I got a big wave from them too.
