Today called for an early walk. Followed by a midmorning walk to get a Covid shot. That added up to over 3.5 miles. Training for Tokyo?
Yesterday was supposed to be the first big waves of the season. Just not within my walking range. So, Billy, Monique, and Bella picked me up, and off we went for a picnic dinner. I am so spoiled.
The trick is to get your boat safely back in the friendly confines of the harbor. It looks a lot like surfing. You wait and wait for the right moment, then enjoy the ride. Or not.
I took some video, but I’m too lazy to process it today. Maybe on a snow day back at The Asylum.
And speaking of processing, it’s time to start processing the trek back to do list. Covid Shot. That was today’s action.
OK, it’s December. What about that crazy plane ride to Tokyo, anyway?
Well, in November, “my” flight from Honolulu to Guam was scheduled four times.
It’s supposed to connect with a Guam–Tokyo flight with a 55-minute window. (Yes, fifty-five.)
Here’s the scorecard for November:
-
-
One flight was cancelled after leaving Honolulu but before arriving in Guam. Haven’t a clue what happened to the passengers.
-
Twice, the flight missed the Tokyo connection entirely.
-
And once, the stars aligned and the plane actually arrived before the Tokyo flight departed.
-
Whatever happens is what I planned.
Here’s a 5-minute video of the Guam → Honolulu leg. The guy doing the video is a CNN correspondent. I do not expect to get the fine treatment he did.
