Spring in Paradise

Due to the $100 credit that Virgin America issued me for the flight delay in December, as well as their fare sale, I booked another week in Hawaii at the start of March.  I had another AirBnb place all set up in the vicinity of the place that I’d stayed at and loved in December, … Continue reading »

Wikiwiki to Waikiki

Not long after my sojourn to Miami, I made a mad dash to Honolulu for a whopping 3 nights.  Why only 3 nights, you may ask?  Mainly because there were only 2 more vacation days unaccounted for through the end of this year.  If I could find a flight that left on Saturday, then could … Continue reading »

Eat the Street

On Friday morning, my first order of business was to mail MY package to myself.  I mailed out the coconut butter, poke seasoning, granola and tea, along with the clothes I’d already worn.  I was bringing my NEW clothes back in my suitcase WITH me!  The Post Office opened at 9:00 a.m. and I walked … Continue reading »

He Got Game

Wednesday morning was another early one – more shopping at the Aloha Stadium Swap Meet.  VIP Shuttle was picking me up at 8:00 a.m.  All of the shuttle drivers that I’ve ever had from VIP are super sweet.  Most of the shuttle drivers from the other companies are that way, too, but the ones from … Continue reading »

Onward to the Palace

My friend had to cancel breakfast on Tuesday morning ’cause he was sick.  Thus, I lounged by the pool a tad longer than usual. Still feeling cultural, I headed off to Iolani Palace.  The last time I was in the Palace was probably 1994.  They no longer offer guided tours, only audio ones.  Entrance was … Continue reading »

Memorial Day Weekend

I didn’t stray too far from my hotel, after all, last Sunday.  The Charthouse was about a block and a half away, so I popped in there for a drink and possibly a bite to eat.  The crowd consisted of mostly older couples and Japanese tourists listening to a drunken duo play Hawaiian music.  I … Continue reading »

Almost Too Relaxed to Blog

Upon my arrival in Honolulu on Wednesday afternoon, I was feeling out of sorts.  With certain things on my mind, it was debatable whether I would be able to even enjoy this vacation.  Seeing my friend when he picked me up at the airport certainly helped.  The nice weather helped, too.  After checking into my … Continue reading »

Eight Days Until Hawaii

A week from tomorrow, I’ll be on my way to Paradise again.  My Australian friend, B. (we met on my last trip there), booked her flight for the exact same days as mine.  Obviously, we’re gonna’ be hanging out.  My cousin and her husband said that we’ll most likely hit up the Mai Tai Bar … Continue reading »

Back to the Grind

My vacations, particularly those in warm, tropical places, always end too soon.  This one was no different. Didn’t my last post leave off on Sunday night?  By Monday, the sun had returned, so a few hours by the pool in the morning was in order.  My left over pasta was lunch before my second visit … Continue reading »
