Made it to California!  Our Hawaii cruise leaves tomorrow!  We got a Lyft from the LAX airport to Torrance California which is halfway to the cruise terminal.  Tip: Delta airlines is currently offering $20 off a new Lyft user so I applied and will use it en route to the cruise terminal tomorrow.  Actually when you read the fine print it is $10 off each ride for a total of $20.  No biggie as we will use it when we disembark at the end of the cruise.  Torrance is a nice area and we were able to walk to a nearby mall with tons of restaurant options. There was also a nearby grocery store that we walked to so we could purchase water and soda for the cruise.  Much cheaper that way!!  We put the bottled water in our luggage and our carry ons.  Princess does allow this.  Its nice to have this to drink in your cabin.  Day 1 and embarkation starts tomorrow!  Stay tuned!!!
