That Knackered Feeling

Is it that poor-sleep on an aeroplane thing, or just that Hawaii relaxation kicking in? Got in at quarter to nine in the morning feeling like something the cat dragged in with intent to bury later on. Nanny was the only one who had a decent meal on any of our flights: she went with the fish. Can't beat Air New Zealand for food, definitely.

Apparently Hawaii's been enjoying flooding here on Oahu, so the overcast weather was fairly typical for what the locals have seen over the last months. Still, the weather held long enough for us to enjoy our first adventure together: a bus ride into town. We stiffed the system $2.75 because the bus drivers don't make change and I wasn't about to pay $50 for a bus ride. Nanny almost immediately made friends with an Aussie couple from Woolongong who holiday in Hawaii a fair bit. Couldn't wait, myself, for the glorious trip to end... ended up in Waikiki, having dinner at Chilli's. Not bad tucker, and what would Julia have? Yep: ribs. She still prefers Applebee's though.

Making an early mark... you just don't sleep well when you can't stretch your legs out.
