First day in Hawaii, USA. Arrived around 7.30am (Hawaiian time) and went straight to Bun’s home. Jet lag. Haven’t had a good sleep in 26 hours so I was practically knocked out when I reach his place. Only got forced to wake up at 2pm by Bun because he was hungry. So we went down for a late lunch in a Vietnamese cafe. Both of us had Pho (pronounced as ‘fur’). Then we went and walked around the area which includes HPU (Bun’s university) as well as Aloha Tower. Didn’t really finish touring around the area because it’s already late and we had dinner arrangements with Bun’s brother. So we might go there again.
Waikiki. That’s the most happening place in the whole island of Oahu. THat’s where Bun’s brother, his gf, Bun and I are heading for dinner. Denny’s is the name of the dining place. Didn’t order any main course for myself as one main course’s portion is already enough for 2 person. Then we head to Waikiki beach where they have fireworks display every Friday night. We were nearly there when the fireworks started so we just manage to catch the last minute of the fireworks. Then we walked around the beach, took some photos, window shopping around Hilton Waikiki Village. Never have I seen such a long queu at the hotel check in at 8pm at night! These people are just super rich to afford to go Hilton and yet they need to line up. Summer holiday… That’s it for the first day at we head back home.
