Honolulu, HI

I really don’t have much to report today – this was very much a ‘holiday’ kind of day. After crepes for breakfast, we walked with Steve and Michael over to the Diamond Head Beach – about three kilometres each way, so I guess that counts as a bit of effort, especially when it’s about 30 degrees. It’s no wonder practically every shop her sells sunscreen – you go through so much of it, it’s a necessity. That trip was a bit exhausting, and the perfect opportunity for an extended nanna nap. For dinner we went to the Cheesecake Factory, via Duke’s Bar (nice cocktails!) and Jimmy Buffet’s bar (no service, not happy Jan!), while we waited for a table to become available. It took a little over an hour, but boy was it worth it. And the cheesecake? Yep, to die for. It was hard to choose from the 35 or so on offer, but I settled for white chocolate raspberry truffle. Every bit as good as it sounds. After dinner, shock horror, we didn’t go to Hula’s! We just waddled back to the hotel, full as googs, after that cheesecake. So that was it – a slow walk, to end a slow day.
