LOAFING AROUND

One of my favorite things about Hawaii is just the overall laziness that I get to indulge in when we are here. We had an extremely busy day today -- we did laundry before we went to the beach, had lunch, sat around and had bubble mochas (which John has finally started to like, because here they make them as frozen smoothies). I like them not frozen myself. We were able to swim today, even though the jellyfish sign was still there, but there weren't many even yesterday, which was supposed to be the big day. And it didn't rain.

I'm putting up a couple of pictures I captured off the news. At home I hate to watch the news because we have to do it about 12 times a day, well maybe only 6, but whatever, it's about 6 too many for me. And I'm even less interested in the weather. However, there is one weatherman here, who though he doesn't look like it, must be a surfer, because he always has surfing news on the weather report, surf levels, and often good pictures of surfers . This picture is a kite surfer having a whale encounter.
John is still pretty tired from his cold, which he used as an excuse to come back to the hotel and watch basketball, and I went out to check out Nohua galleries at the Ward Warehouse. They used to have a nice store in the Moana Surfrider hotel, but I guess business has been bad and they closed it down. And speaking of downturn in business, the only other store that had nice blown glass seems to have closed as well. I guess tourists only want schlock. By the way, I notice that they never use the word tourists. We are visitors.
