Apparently, our trip to Hawaii in May was part of the increase in tourist arrivals that month compared to arrivals in May 2015.

According to the Honolulu Star-Advertiser:
More visitors came to Hawaii this May than during the same month last year, but they spent slighly less, according to preliminary statistics released today by the Hawaii Tourism Authority (HTA). 
Total visitor arrivals to the Hawaiian Islands in May 2016 rose 1.3 percent from a year ago to 718,913 visitors.
