Au Revoir Canada, Aloha Hawaii

The mid-afternoon ferry crossing took us from Duke Point on Vancouver Island to Vancouver where we spent the night at an airport hotel before our Air Canada flight which would take us to Honolulu.
Security at the airport was high and we underwent numerous checks, paper and physical(!), including the all new full body scan!
Thankfully, the airport was not too busy and it took just under an hour to complete security and cross customs into the US!
Our flight was on time and was bumpy all the way to Honolulu thanks to some high cloud.
We managed to get some fairly decent aerial shots on approach in to Honolulu, our first glimpse of the islands!

Our inter-island flight via Hawaiian Airlines from Honolulu to Hilo was on time and uneventful.

Our hosts met us outside the arrivals hall and we made our way to our new place where we enjoyed a glass of wine and met our 2 new charges, Sadie and Frieda!
