Honolulu


We arrived in Honolulu at 8:25 pm Central which translates to 4:25 Hawaiian time. Some real live orchid leis were hung around our necks. Three airplanes got us here, a small commuter jet picked us up in Fargo and took us to Denver, a 757-200 carried us to LAX, and a 767-300 brought us into Honolulu. All three flights were very smooth, a magic carpet ride, and, to top it off, our luggage arrived with us. A wise-cracking bus driver shuttled us to our hotel from the airport. I noticed he wore an interesting necklace made from two curved teeth from some critter that were formed into an amulet. I commented, and he said they were teeth from his first wife. More tomorrow.
