I've accepted a long time ago that I do not have a working sense of direction. Art knows I could get lost in a store and never find my way out. OK... I'm exaggerating, but not by much.Tiffany is more like Art and always keeps an eye on me so I don't get lost in unfamiliar places. She has always had an internal gyroscope. Her husband is even better.
That's why I suppose I shouldn't have been too surprised to hear this story. Tif says Ed had something to do so she and KC were going back to their Maui hotel room together. Tif forgot the short cut she was planning to take and was going to ask somebody for help. Three year old KC said, "Mommy, I can take you back." Granted it was not the short cut Tif was going to take, but KC actually led her back to the hotel room the way they left it.
Well... that does it! I suppose I'll have to make sure I keep KC close by me so I don't get lost on Maui.
Art and I are getting up tomorrow at 3:30 AM and leaving on the 5:30 AM flight. It's $63.00 for that Hawaiian Airlines flight and $93.00 for the next one at the more reasonable hour.
We haven't been back to Maui since the kids were in grade school. I can't wait to go in a few hours. However, it's not necessarily the island I'm looking forward to seeing, but a certain little navigator who says she's saving some red flowers for me.
KC is alert to her surroundings. I can hardly wait till she gets a camera.
ReplyDeleteHave fun island hopping.
I'm the navigator in our family, DH just goes round in circles. Have a great trip. I'm afraid I'd have paid the extra to get a later flight, I'm really not too good in the early morning any more.
ReplyDeleteOh, what a cute story! KC is amazing. Have you tried that maze at Dole Pineapple Plantation? I wonder if she could find her way out.
ReplyDeleteWhen is check in, though? Usually, it's 3 pm, right?
My sense of direction is zero, too but my eldest grandson has been a navigator since he was three! Enjoy your trip - looking forward to some more photos!
ReplyDeleteThis is so sweet of the two girls.
ReplyDeleteOkay -- keep asking directions and looking at signs. Maybe you need a GPS device, although I can't find my car in the parking lot sometimes.
ReplyDeleteHave fun on Maui -- I love it.
Please see a late entry on your post about Art's friend.
Aloha, DrumMajor
how fun, I've never been to Maui so will look forward to some photos of that area.
ReplyDeleteHave a great time on Maui with KC! She has the sense of direction I'd LOVE to have. Even when I come out of a hotel room, I don't know whether to go left or right to get to the elevator, no matter how many times I've come out of that same room! We were last on Maui about 6 years ago and found it crowded. I'll be eager to hear your reaction to life there.
ReplyDeleteKay, what a cute story! That KC is so smart!! You and Art have a wonderful time visiting-enjoy!
ReplyDeleteKC is really something special! Adorable and smart!! I know you and Art are going to have such a great time and I'm excited for you! Enjoy! Take lots of photos!

That's some talent for 3 years old! What a relief too, to know she can find her way back again if only a little lost -- she's a wonder!
ReplyDeleteI love Maui. I think it's the prettiest of all the islands.
ReplyDeleteHave fun!
That's amazing to me, as I couldn't find my way out of a paper bag.
