My Lotus experience in Hawaii

I just got back from a family trip with my wife and kids and we all had a great time. To my surprise, one of my sons took it upon himself to rent me a Lotus Elise. I had no idea and was completely taken off guard. The car is a street legal go kart and I had a blast driving it. Here are some shots my sons took.

Very cool of your sons to do that for you! What island were you on? When we went to Maui, I swear there was a yellow Lotus just like that outside of an exotic rental place.

Yeah Hawaii does suck to drive in, but hey a lotus is a lotus.My eldest son was the head of the operation, but it was a family gift. My sons took the pictures, I stick to my point and shoot cameras. We had the lotus while at Oahu, but we did stay in Maui for 8 days. It would have been a lot more fun to drive there rather than the LA esque honolulu.
