Tani's Ride to Honolulu Arrives
The American Islander arrives at Midway on short notice giving Tani just enough time to collect her things and hop aboard. We had looked at all sorts of options including small private aircraft, catching a ride on a freighter bound for Wake Island and then a C130 out of Wake for Honolulu. In the end this small ship which collects the nets and plastic bits from the outer islands to prevent them from hurting the spinner dolphins and seals.
To catch a ride Tani signs up as a park service volunteer
American Islander pulls away from the pier with Tani aboard leaving Rick and I to bring Botany Bay the next leg of the journey.
