Re: Stranded in Hawaii, no joke, help/ideas?
Unfortunately, it sounds like your best bet for now is to hang tight and wait until you hear from your district, unless you can manage to get the whole team on a single flight. The idea of trying to catch the ferry back to the mainland is definitely an option there, but of course that's probably going to depend entirely on how much it's going to set you back on the funds you currently have (which doesn't sound like much). Contacting the media to get your story out would really be a very good idea, and could possibly get you help the fastest, since airlines will be pretty willing to take the free publicity of helping out a team in need. You might also want to contact the Governer's office, and let her know about your plight. As supportive of FIRST as she is, I'm alomst certain she wouldn't want to hear that a team was stranded in her state without any help.
Best of luck getting home safely, if you can't get there quickly.
