Friday, January 28 – Honolulu

I’m a little tired this morning, so I decided to hang around the apartment and work on a journal update, do some reading and watch TV. Boring, I know! (remind myself – marathon, not sprint!)

I did get out for a walk this afternoon though and ended up at my favorite bench on Magic Island. I did have a pleasant surprise on my walk back to the apartment however. I took a new route and came across the companion statue to the one I highlighted previously that’s adjacent to the Hawaii Convention Center. Bonus!

Saturday, January 29 – Honolulu

I ventured into Chinatown today. The Chinese New Year is this coming Tuesday, so I was hoping some special activities might be taking place. Unfortunately, due to Covid, there were no public celebrations scheduled. There was still plenty of traffic and long lines though at Chinese bakeries and flower shops.

It was about a 45 minute walk to the west from my apartment.

For dinner? The $3.99 Subway special! Weird that I didn’t get something to eat while I was in Chinatown, right? I know! I just wasn’t hungry at the time. I’ll definitely go back though to try out some of the food stalls!
