Part of the ultralight packing is an attempt to save my life. I left my fins and mask and snorkel back in Kona. On purpose. More people than you would imagine. Die snorkeling in Hawaii every year. And nearly every one of them is a visitor. I don’t really consider myself a visitor but I do consider myself an overconfident old woman. So to prevent being totally humiliated by drowning like a dumb tourist, I decided to just leave the gear at home in Kona. After all, moderation only leads to long life.
A normal person would have taken the hotel shuttle to the hotel. Not me. I walked. The hard part was finding sidewalks.
The hotel is modest.
The room is huge. I can see the airport, the ocean and Diamond Head. And it’s as far away from the highway as possible.
And I am such a party animal. It’s 6pm and I have dinned and am all settled for the evening in my room.
And I hate doing the blog with my phone. That’s surely one of my first world kind problems don’t you think?
