My sister’s best friend got married in Hawaii in the summer of 2007, and my sister was one of her bridesmaids.  While it turned out to be an expensive venture for my sister — paying for a Hawaii vacation, as well as her bridesmaid outfit — she enjoyed it all quite a bit.

One thing she decided to do was to stay in Hawaii for a week or so after the wedding was over.  After all, she figured, if she was going to be paying for the flight over there she might as well enjoy it and turn it into a vacation for herself.  So when she and the rest of the bridal party were looking at Hawaii hotels, she made sure she booked her room for extra time.

Of course, as happens with many weddings some things went badly, which was disappointing for my sister.  However, I think she had a lot of fun in Hawaii.  Yet another thing she’s done that I haven’t!  I guess I’ll have to look into a Maui vacation sooner or later — not that my sister and I are extremely competitive, but now that she’s been to Hawaii and has all her stories to share, I am starting to want to go, too!
