Had a bit of an ‘oops’ day today. Hadn’t planned to go shopping and certainly not all day! First purchase was a new suitcase which we needed. Not so essential was to fill it up before we even left the shopping centre!
Most things are really expensive and then a few are about half what they are in NZ – including Clinique skin care products, Levi jeans, toys and Skechers shoes.
[A] All-day dance/musical performances added to the vibe, and the Miss Hawaii contestants even joined us for a photo-op.
[S] Our hotel has a space called the Living Room furnished with sofas and comfy chairs. This is where they serve our included breakfast of tropical fruit, toast and pastries. It has all day, help yourself coffee (good coffee that is) and tea. It is very civilised and a nice chill-out space.
The trade-off is that there’s no tea and coffee in the room. The bathroom is quite petite and storage space is lacking, but we are comfortable and the location is pretty good.
We slept long and well last night and seem to have recovered from the deprivation of the night before.
Interestingly, my step-counter remembered the steps I had done on Saturday morning before it re-calibrated to Hawaii time of Friday morning, so I woke up with 1400 steps on the clock and I am ending the day with 11,200. Good effort I say.
