Hawai'i Days One & Two






So far, so good. We started (after Jackson) in the Dallas airport. I found a candy store and charged a bunch of sugar for the plane trip over, and Ned drank so much Guinness that we lost track of time and almost missed the plane. Landing was safe; hotel (the Royal Hawaiian) was very "pink" and lots of fun. Late night dinner involved pork (they wrapped the pork in greens, rather than flavoring the greens with small bits of pork, which I think is GENIUS), and then some malasadas (sp?) from Leonard's. Melissa, we know it wasn't as good as Agnes's would have been, but it was convenient. Afternoon at Pearl Harbor (very moving) and a few hours spent cursing the fact that you can't find H1 West anywhere on this island (though there are plenty of exits for H1 East, oddly). Hit the jackpot with postcards, and arrived at Turtle Bay this afternoon in time for sunset and conference mai-tais. All in all, great trip on day two. Stay tuned in for more photos.
