Last full day in Honolulu

Tuesday we had dinner at Shokudo Japanese, and I had their honey toast for dessert. I ate almost all of it, and I haven't been actually hungry since.

The Ala Moana mall is quite close to the hotel. We went there a couple of times in the last few days, but the place is a real maze. It's what they call an "open air mall," which means that it's mostly outside, whichever of four levels you're on. It's easiest to get into from the parking garage, which is on three level of the mall (if I'm not mistaken), but we did find one entrance into Target from the sidewalk, on the far side of the mall. We did more exploration today, found a huge food court on level 1, and Paula and I both got mahi mahi for lunch at Steak & Fish. Isaac wasn't with us, but he caught up with us as Paula was having some ginger tea and I was having a mango drink with ice cream.

Back to the US

 After a 14-hour flight from roughly 10:30am Monday to 7am Monday, we are back in the US. Customs and agricultural screening were minimal. The light rail that goes through the airport also goes to our hotel, so that was easy. We got to the hotel by 8 and actually had a room by 9. We met Chas, had another breakfast, visited a garden he knew, and had lunch in the hotel. Chas in hotel room

Last full day in Sydney

Image
 We are pretty much touristed out. We are agreed that there is nothing remaining that we would be sorry not to have done. Train into the Blue Mountains? We've seen mountains, and it would take all day. Ferry from the harbor? Nowhere in particular we want to go. We walked/scooted extensively, checking out maybe 15 places to have lunch, and ended back at Friday's Pontoon. I had an Aussi Burger, Paula had a pumpkin & feta pizza with pine nuts and rocket (= arugula). The building I had been referring to as the "cheese grater" turns out to be the Sydney Conference Center. Sydney Conference Center After lunch, we came back to the apartment and took naps. Next: Dinner on assorted leftovers, packing, bed.
