I saw that cruise mentioned a couple weeks ago. A friend in Maryland decided to book the cruise, not just for the eclipse but also because the ship stops by Kona. I’ll meet him at the pier and will probably go have pizza and beer.
As for the Kona airport problems last night, our airport is back open, just in time for a freind to arrive from Alaska. A tip to Costco also will be in his plans because we have things Costco doesn’t stock in Alaska
