Thursday March 24th - Saturday March 26th. Two years ago we came to Oahu, not knowing that we would someday be living here. Though there is so much to do, especially if you are a tourist, we skipped a lot of it to spend whole days lounging on the beach. When we lived in Utah, nowhere near the coast, we swore that we would spend all of our time at the beach when we moved back to San Diego but I'm sure that in the last three months of living in Hawaii we've spent more time on the sand then in the last three years in San Diego. In all the years that I lived in San Diego, I don't think that I ever owned a beach chair and now there is a matching set in the trunk of our car at all times, complete with beach towels and reading material. Today I was looking through some old pictures and came across these ones from two years ago, both taken at Diamond Head. Perhaps I will share more as we revisit some other spots.
Today, we went back to Diamond Head. I left my globe in San Diego but from up here looking South I'm pretty sure that if you had a super power of the best eyesight ever and could see for thousands of miles, Antarctica would be the thing that you saw from here.
This week, we had shave ice from Shimazu Store (peach, watermelon, raspberry and cherry, cream soda), visited the cat house at the Hawaiian Humane Society which is a beautiful place, visited some seedy convenience stores, did a little baking and did a little hiking. We are now taking applications for friends, so, if you live within fifty miles, like to hike, enjoy shave ice, and preferably have a sail boat or kayak, lets hang out. Also, we are opening up our futon to guests as of now so if you are already a friend or family member, please come and visit.
