I am writing to you from a friend's place in Honolulu! Lucky friend huh? I got in yesterday after many hours on planes (flew Delta so that meant SEA to SLC, then to HNL) - due to the time change it was only 3pm here, so plenty of hours remaining to enjoy the sunshine :)
My original plan was to go surfing this morning, but due to my wanting to sleep, and wanting to get everything in order for the rest of the trip, I am instead acting a my own travel agent and spending some time online figuring out car rentals, bus schedules, etc. I'd rather put in some relaxed time now than be scrambling at the last minute (that's the theory anyway)
I'm also a bit paranoid about getting around on time using The Bus so I'm going to leave ample time to get back to the airport. I can sit in the sun there anyway :)
This afternoon I am headed to Kona on the Big Island to stay for the weekend and cheer on my friends KLW, KMJ and DS in the Lavaman triathlon on Sunday morning.
Hopefully I'll be able to update my whereabouts but that is, of course, dependent upon internet access and electricity. Isn't it funny how that's become so standard? Yet another way in which modern technology has made the world that much smaller. - Although is it really that much more enjoyable?? ...if I didn't have the option to be overly cautious, I would be surfing right now...
:)
this is how I schlepped my stuff around...
