My Hawaiian Return

Airport Welcome

I'm back!  I never thought I would be back so soon if at all, I feel very lucky to have the opportunity.  It didn't surprise me when I immediately felt back at home here.  Such a beautiful place.  I landed yesterday around 2:30 to have Heather Reed's beautiful smile awaiting me.  I checked in at the Embassy Suites and waited for Josh Osborne who was landing two hours after me.  We hit up the free happy hour with a few malibu rum and pineapples and waited for Heather to get back here.  All I wanted for dinner was some Korean meat which I was able to find at the Yardhouse.  It was a great dinner with some newfound friends and old friends as well.  After dinner we headed across the street to Coconut Willies where the evening came to a quick end for me after a shot of Jager was purchased for me from one of our new British friends.  I just came in from laying in the sun with a view of Diamond Head and somebody playing the ukelele right next to me.  Now back in the room and waiting to hear from Seb and Kristine to meet them at the Shack for some wings and beers.  It will be an early night since we will be taking off for the North Shore early tomorrow morning.  I will be the photographer for Josh as he jumps out of a plane tomorrow morning!  Aloha!
