Our last day before returning home. Hsuan got poolside seats and “reserved” them with towels and other belongings, and we all had breakfast at the buffet. Again, we really enjoyed the pools, but I kept an eye on the clock. Hsuan checked us out of our room before noon while the boys and I brought our (already-packed) luggage to the car before returning to the pools. Around 3:30 PM, we left the pools, got our traveling clothes out of the car, and went to the departure lounge (sometimes called a hospitality suite or hospitality center, for guests with late departures) to shower and change.
We got to Lihue airport two hours before our departure to Honolulu, and from Honolulu, we flew back to LAX.
