GROUNDHOG DAY

Re-living Tuesday 7th April today. I'm sure theres some weight in the 'crossing the date line again and turning back time' argument! One day!!

Cleared imigration and customs after a bag search. The fellas on the desk are proper aggressive.
'What are your intensions in the USA?' 'Where are you planning on going whilst in the USA?' ' What buisness do you have in the USA?' ' When are you leaving the USA?' ' Have you got anything you shouldnt have hidden inside your bottom?'

It automatically makes you defensive and then when they realise you're good, they transform into the nicest people youre ever likely to meet! 'Thats it buddy, you have a wonderful stay and welcome to the USA' - Bizzare!!

Got to the hotel at about 8am which was about 2am in me head, managed to get a couple of hours kip on the plane but we'll see where the Jet Lag takes us!!!
Suprisingly our room wasnt ready at 8am so we dumped our backpacks and went for a scout round Waikiki beach and Honolulu. The sun has got his hat on today! Its absolutley roasting with clear blue skies.
We got a tram taht does a loop of Honolulu to kill some time and get our barings. We realised that there were a few different loops and we'd got on the shopping mall route. So we saw all of Honolulu's shopping centres and car parks!!! Got our barings though and went to check into the hotel.
We got upgrade to a better room, something to do with the fact that we booked directly through the hotel! Anyway we've got a sea view and two, count them TWO balconies, one facing the beach and the other facing the town. Its a corner room so its massive, two double beds, cable TV and en suite - nice!

Jet Slags winning a bit - had to have a kip in the afternoon. Watched the build up to the Masters which is on this weekend. They're getting pretty excited about it - they've even got a whole channel called the golf channel and all they're talking about is the Masters - Good Times!!!

Forced ourselves to go for food and found a great way to stay awake - we got on the ale! Found a bar that has about 60 draught beers!! Even had Newcastle Brown!!!!
