Two Girls... One World
Arrived in Hawaii this morning... which is very confusing because we left Fiji tonight... we have had today twice thanks to crossing the International Date Line on the way over and subsequently doing a Dr Who and travelling back 22 hours! Phew.... what an adventure!
Today has involved checking into our hostel in Waikiki (a stones throw from the famous and stunning beach) and relaxing on the beach... as well as a bit of shopping. Karen's poorly so nurse Fleur prescribed flat fat coke (although I believe lemonade will have the same effect - thanx for the tip Mummy) and time in the shade (no more tan topping up for me for a while). I'm not sure I trust Hawaiian doctors... sure they're very nice but I don't know if I'd take a doctor in a lei and grass skirt seriously... What do you mean they don't all wear that???!!
Waikiki beach was packed full today as it's the weekend - so many surfers in the water. Hopefully, illnesses allowing, we will get to do some surfing or body boarding sometime before we leave.
We plan to check out Pearl Harbour, but as with many American things, we fear it is incredibly commercialised now... but we shall have a look into it...
Will update again from the City of Angels! Hope you're all well - see you soon!
And don't forget the message board!
OH NADIA - I took a photo for you today! Of the restaurant down the road... will email you a picture but let's just say Jimmy Buffet would be proud!!
Karen and Fleur xx
