My body clock hasn’t adjusted, waking at 2 a.m. (8 back in Maryland), drift in and out of sleep to get up as the sun is coming up just before 6. Daylight is generally the same through my time here, sunrise before 5:45, sunset after 7. Drive south to Place of Refuge in Honaunau brief hike on the 1871 trail that runs along the ocean returning to my car around noon after wandering around the park. Stop in Holualoa for a burger at Rebel Kitchen 😎😋. Later in the afternoon drive north to Waikaloa Resort and Queen’s Market Place for Lei Day music, lei making and hula demo. My plan from the first was to be on Hawaii for today’s celebration.
