I allowed jet lag to win today. When you have four months you can do that. Woke up at 3am. Got up, made coffee and started settling in at 4am. Had breakfast at 730. Went for a small walk and got a starter kit of groceries. Did some more settling in. Went for an even smaller walk and then declared my day was over at 1pm. After which I had yogurt and coffee for lunch and then I napped and read and napped and read.
It is now 5pm and soon I will prepare my first meal in 8 months. Think I’ll start easy. Avocado toast and a salad. Besides it is always fun to use Big Island salad greens. One always has the chance of contracting “Rat Lung Disease” – which would give your mainland family practice physician a real thrill.
One day last month – Sardines were the “Daily Special” at the Asylum. I was not impressed. Today, doing my grocery shopping, I found the only acceptable sardine “Special”.
The hotel across the street, a Marriott Courtyard, seems to be having delusions of grandeur or at least visions of gentrification. They put up these cabanas on their lawn. Which is a little out of character for our drinking village with a fishing problem.
