Susan's Top 10 Hawaiin Favorites

Hawaii

I'm not going to spend too much time reminiscing about our trip to Honolulu last week. It was nice and I enjoyed almost every minute of it but I'm over it now and on to the next thing. That's how I roll. While I love going, I love coming home just as much. They say a person should have a life they don't need a vacation from. I think I mostly do. What I need is sunshine. And, we got plenty of it last week. Here are my top 10 favorite things that happened in Hawaii last week:
  1. We ate some fantastic dim sum and chicken katsu. That alone would have made the trip worth it. We simply do not have good Chinese food where we live.
  2. Walking was incorporated several times into our days. We average 6.5 miles every day and I truly enjoy every step. The more I walked, the more I wanted to keep walking. 
  3. Naps. Sometimes more than one a day.
  4. Reading time. I did most of my reading on the plane.
  5. People watching. OMG! Honolulu/Waikiki is a melting pot of people from all over. The fashionistas are everywhere and you can't get a better seat for seeing beautiful Japanese women in high fashion.
  6. We had no agenda. No shows to attend. No dinner reservations.
  7. There was always a nice breeze.
  8. A great, affordable public transit system.
  9. No bugs. I looked for 'em believe you me! The first couple of nights, I imagined I could hear cockroaches scurrying across the floor but there were none.
  10. Sunshine.
That's about it. 
love, susan
