Intentionally Unexpected
Yesterday was shopping day, and being lazy sitting at the house watching the waves. We went to the farmer’s market and got some truly astounding fruits. Papaya, mango, and pineapple that have exceeded all expectations.
We also went to Costco. Which met expectations exactly.
We have arrived at our home for the next 10 days.
I wish I had been wearing sunglasses here for more than one reason… The sun is just as much of a death laser as in Texas.
At least Hei Hei isn’t suffering from his agoraphobia if he’s indoors.
Off to grocery shopping!
It took about an hour of sitting on the tarmac to get to our gate. Apparently a small plane crashed and caught fire on the runway this morning and it threw the entire airport into chaos for the day.
It’s very Hawaii though. You get off the plane onto the tarmac, and the “gate” is a series of, well, huts.
A nice welcome really, sets the tone.
Now we get to wait an hour for our bags to be unloaded. It appears that they’ve got 2 guys to do all the baggage handling for the entire airport. Ah well, it’s lovely.
[ confused chicken screaming ]
Apparently a small plane crashed at Kona Airport this morning, so we’re parked on the tarmac for an undetermined amount of time before they can bring us to the gate.
*I* may start the Hei-Hei screaming soon…
What happens when a chicken feels the call of the sky?
It’s not about the destination, it’s about the friends we made along the way…
The journey always begins at gate E11. It is the way.
“do you want to stand in line for BBQ with us?”
So yeah, we got in line at 8am for lunch.
I guess it’s supposed to be really good. The smoke blowing by sure SMELLS good.
If I put her down she just claws her way back up to my neck. So here we sit.
