A flight into the past ...

Diterbitkan: 08.03.2020

... or, a flight to Honolulu, Hawaii. 

Aloha!

We landed this morning, on 07.03.2020 at half past seven in Honolulu, Hawaii and experienced the double 07.03.2020 through the time difference (current time in Auckland: 08.03.2020, 7:20 PM; current time in Honolulu: 07.03.2020, 8:20 PM). We went through a 23-hour time difference, which is quite noticeable. Although we were able to sleep for more than half of the time on the plane, the jet lag is still hitting us a little. 

When we arrived at the airport, Mareike and I were separated at the immigration. We are just friends and therefore have to go through immigration alone. 🥺 After I had relatively good luck and was hardly asked any questions, except the usual ones that are asked at every airport, the 'nice' man from the border control almost took Mareike apart. 😳 He wanted to see our travel documents, so that he could really see that we are leaving the country and only here for vacation - not for work or anything else. He was also interested in the balance on her credit card. 🙄

After the excitement, we found a shuttle bus that took us to our hostel.

We arrived there at around 9:30 AM, but check-in was only at 1 PM. However, we still got breakfast. After that, we lay down in the hammocks and looked up what we can do here in Honolulu, or on Oahu and Maui. Then we fell asleep. 🤦🏼‍♀️😴

We woke up again around half past twelve and waited for check-in. Then we finally got our keys and could move into our room, which we have to share with 6 other people. 

Afterwards, we went to Waikiki Beach, which is 150 meters away, where we enjoyed the sun on our stomachs all afternoon. 🌞

In the early evening, we went back to the hostel, took a shower, and then went shopping for our dinner. The nearest big supermarket is a 30-minute walk from our hostel, smaller and therefore more expensive shops are just around the corner. But since we were so tired, we decided to go to a small mom-and-pop shop and paid 7 dollars for 1x spaghetti, 1X tomato sauce, and 1x onion, which is about 6.20 euros, expensive dinner. 😂😳

After our dinner, we sat down with other backpackers, who are all German as usual, and played cards. 😇

We are now going to end the evening in a relaxed way. 

Best regards from Honolulu, Hawaii! 🌺🇺🇲

Yours Jojo!💫
