Congrats!! You're moving for good? I'm ready to purchase a ticket back there on Tuesday - But it's on hold since I haven't gotten my visa in the mail yet. 11 days and counting!
Better job offers in the bay area and my wife wants to do her Phd in UCSF or Berkley. Hawaii is a nice place to live but it is very limited in terms of job market and good school. Plus we will be closer to her parents and we have a lot of friends in the bay area too :-)
