Hawaii Vacation 2008 - Day 6

We were up early again. We still are about 1 1/2 hours off normal sleep time. Today was overcast so we went for a ride to the punchbowl to check out the memorial. We also drove around and found Hilo Hattie, a store that features all sorts of Hawaiian shirts. We all picked up a flowered print shirt. The kids didn't last long in the store so we had to hit the snowball stand outside. We were very pleased with the Hawaiian snowballs! The ice was shaved very fine.

After the store we headed back and found Walmart. We picked up various items for our kitchen as well as beach items. We picked up an umbrella and a flat folding beach chair for $10 each. We found out the day before that renting two chairs and an umbrella for 1 day on the beach was $54. Yikes!

We went to the beach later in the afternoon and I watched the end of the Celtics/Lakers game at a beach side bar. We came back to the room and had some frozen pizzas from WalMart, watched some TV, We only made it to about 9PM. It seems to get a little better each night. We are starting to come to the realization that the trip home is going to be a nightmare when it comes to the time shift.

Aloha!
