Our last day of vacation was super. We went swimming at Sea Bear Beach, then went to breakfast next door at Hau Tree.
The benedict was fantastic and it was super chill (until babies arrived).
They have these really cool concrete benches out front that remind me of how we used to make lacy homemade candles using melted candle wax, crushed ice, a wick and a milk carton as the form.
I have no recollection of what we did for the rest of the day but our big finish was dinner with our friend. Her loco moco was vast (notebook for size comparison). Behind her were crates of super smelly pineapples that were dizzyingly fragrant. Hoo!
We walked back to our hotel, past the Honolulu Aquarium. She asked us if it was any good, and mentioned that the last time she went to the aquarium she spent most of her time rating the fish for tastiness. "Ooh! You're ono. I use the purple ones as bait..." She and her dad do a lot of fishing together. Somehow he, raised in Hawaii, is a die-hard Cowboys fan, as is she. And that is everything I know about my friend's dad.
Better luck next year, Pops!
And so ends Hawaii 2022! Sorry it took so long, but we came home, did Thanksgiving, Mom fell, went out of town to see sumo, Christmas, depression, now. It's past Groundhog Day and I still haven't taken down the Covid tree.
