A nice relaxing day today, mostly because it's not really sunny so there's no demand to go to the beach right away. We started the day by going to one of our favorite spots, Eggs 'n' Things, where we had our favorite breakfast, one order of macadamia nut pancakes. One order has FIVE big pancakes, way too much for even a good eater like me to eat. And we only had to wait about 40 minutes to get in. They have a wonderful guy there who gives out the pagers who does a great quick thing where he calls out people's names and gives them little plays on their names and other cute things. In English AND Japanese. It was kind of overcast and not all that warm, so I decided my hair was getting a bit too long and went and got a haircut. I found a really nice woman, Sunyata at the Ohana East, who actually seemed to understand my hair, and I even had a good time getting it cut. I also learned not to buy sandwiches at the Food Pantry, where I mostly went because I needed cash from the ATM. It was probably the worst sandwich I've ever had.

By the time I got back it had gotten warm so we went to the beach, but not in our swimsuits. It was really nice, and I was wading in the water and not paying attention and all of a sudden my pants were all wet. You can see by the picture that there are hardly any people on the beach. By the time we left, there was more sun and many more people soaking up the sun.
They have had really bad flooding on Maui. Glad we're not there. A little thunder and lightning last night, but we didn't even hear it. I just saw on the news that they're telling people to stay out of the ocean because of overflowing sewers. Not much of an issue around Waikiki, because there wasn't so much rain here as other parts of this island.
Internet at this hotel is a bit spotty, I've spent probably an hour on the phone with tech support today. So even though I have not too much to say, I'm filing tonight.
