BAR NONE

Today was overcast, sunny, overcast, rainy,  rainier, rainiest, clear, a little warm, cool, cooler.

It's pleasant right now, but while it was raining we went to the Goodwill so I could get a pair of long pants.  I had a pair I was going to bring, but when I tried them on they had mysteriously lost about an inch and a half in the waistband, so I didn't bring them.  John wants to go to something tomorrow night that sounds kind of fancy at the museum,  and seems like my trademark old-lady-visiting-Waikiki knee-length pants and tropical printT shirt probably won't fly.  Basically, except for the red hair, I look like every other woman my age that I see on the street.  It's a damn uniform.

So I ended up getting a pair of black pants, a pair of white pants that need to be shortened (what was I thinking there?) a jacket, because I'm cold, and a cashmere sweater, because it was $3.99.

After we had lunch, I walked over to the Irish Rose bar to make sure at least one of us could find it.
John came back to the hotel and went to the gym and soaked his foot m Epsom salts.

Tonight we went to the Irish Rose pub to see what I thought was the Wolfe Tones, but turned it to be one Wolfe and four cubs.  Derek Warfield was one of the originals, and he is on tour with the young guys and his blessing.  They were good, but the whippersnappers seemed like they were just tolerating the old coot, almost to the point of rolling their eyes when he was talking.  But they made a good band and the program was a lot of fun.  In their defense, I will say that he did rather like to give the entire I story of Ireland before any song.  The music was upbeat and fun, even though some of it had very sad stories hidden in the jaunty music.

The only bad thing about this place was the smoking.  We asked the waitress why people are smoking here. She said their policy was to tell people smoking is illegal in Hawaii but it's not their job to  enforce it.  Apparently it's just coincidental that they have ashtrays on the table.

Tomorrow I think we may take the bus and scope out where we will be whale counting on Saturday, because we have to be there at 7:15, so I want to know is exactly how long it will take to get there.  
I had a couple of pictures to upload, but today google isn't in the mood to let me put them anywhere, right or wrong places.  This is a very annoying app.
