i really only had one full day to see and do what i wanted to around Oahu island so i started the day with a big ass coffee and a confusing ride on the city bus.
SIDEBAR: all the names in hawaiian sound the same to me. everything sounded like kaualonamaunaleiokaisnuma. this made the bus ride very confusing. i decided to just wait til i saw signs.
first stop, Hanauma bay, where i was greeted by wild chickens:
it was beautiful there:
i snorkeled myself silly all morning. i have a wicked fucking sun burn to rival the one i got in HK to prove it.
Next stop, hiking up Diamond head:
very steep and very hot, specially at mid-day:
but the view from the top was worth it!
dinner with my friend Maki, preggers with her first kid, and her husband mark. they too me to a cool local joint called kaka'ako kitchen in Ward, where i got some super tasty mahi mahi.
i spent two breakfasts in a row at Wailana coffee house and cocktail lounge, which was two doors down from my hotel. breakfast is good! this was my first breakfast, the Hawaiian Breakfast which is corned beef has, runny eggs, and fried bananas with toast. i was not a fan of everything touching, but hey, sometimes, you just gotta go with it.
day two:
i love coffee shops. i with we had more this this one in tokyo . . .
