The Day Continues

As if we didn’t get enough walking during the Diamond Head climb. We took a brief rest this afternoon and then headed down to the beach. Our intention was to wade in the water. Instead we ended up booking a tour of the Polynesian Cultural Centre, complete with Luau tomorrow. There won’t be any updates during the day tomorrow as this is slated as a ten hour day, ending at about 10:30 PM HST.

Anyway, here we are four full days in Hawaii and we have not even touched the Pacific Ocean yet, let alone gone swimming, snorkeling or surfing. Yeah right! Me surfing, ain’t gonna happen. I have enough trouble standing up on dry land, let alone on a floating, moving surfboard.

We got down to Waikiki beach, and began to watch the surfers and boogie-boarders and flat out forgot all about wading in the ocean. We grabbed a spot of lunch and then headed back to the room to rest a bit. At this point we have logged 10.38 KM today walking. I think we are averaging about 10 KM per day walking. Oh well, it will keep the legs in shape for when I get back on the hockey rink next Sunday morning.

I’m sure we will end up walking some more this evening.
