As you can see we received a little rain this morning. Sprinkled on us several times yesterday too. I'm told pretty normal and why there is so much "green" in Honolulu. I'm also told the rain comes quickly and leaves quickly. Weather report indicates we will see rain every two hours or so, but only sprinkles. I'm hoping the "haze" will burn off. It's not even 7am yet.
Woke up this morning feeling refreshed and ready to go. Cars were moving outside, we left the door to the balcony open, and it sounded as if the day was starting. Looked at the clock, 2am!!! The day was ending and my internal clock was refusing to reset! Forced myself to stay in bed and get more sleep. Rose from bed at 5am. Just couldn't lie there anymore, besides Tracy was getting up. This 5 hr difference is killing me.
Well, might as well start the day. It's just now 6 am. Maybe Tracy and I will check out the beach before it wakes up!
On Friday Tracy and I leave for Hawaii. Tracy has a conference she is attending and I will be, well ON VACATION. While Tracy has been to Hawaii several times, this will be my first trip to the island paradise. For seven days we will be staying at the Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort.
While Tracy attends conference sessions and hob knobs with others from her profession, I will be checking out sites like Pearl Harbor, the Dole Plantation and the Iolani Palace.
I also plan on getting plenty of beach and surf time as well as plenty of sight seeing walking all over Waikiki and Honolulu. During the trip I will post photos and videos of my travels, and maybe even some underwater video if my new iPhone case works as advertised.
The best part about going to Hawaii, is that I know so little about it every day will be an adventure. Every corner, every sight, every meal will be something new. To me there is nothing as exciting as venturing through a brand new city. When it's one as gorgeous as Honolulu, it's even better.
