Another Day, More Rain??

2011-05-09_06-29-41_557Welcome to our second full day on O’ahu. I might be getting adjusted to the time change, 6 hours from home. Actually slept the entire night and was awakened by the alarm clock @ 6:30am. (Must have turned it on accidentally.)
Still very cloudy this morning, spotty showers and heavy rain once again possible across the islands later today….

Talk about odds…  We went to Duke’s Canoe Club in Waikiki for dinner Sunday evening, and after deciding the bar area was too crowded, opted for the dinner menu in the maim restaurant. As we were waiting to be seated, I saw Marianne’s jaw drop. Asked her if she saw someone she knew. She said she thought so, but was not positive. Long story short, we endeduo being seated 2 tables away from him, and a few minutes later I talked her into asking him. Before she got a word out, he recognized her as well. Marianne and Dave Arnal have not seen one another in 25+ years, and this was just an unbelievable set of coincidences falling together.  He was here on business with a coworker, and we all sat down and had dinner together.
To really add to the “weirdness” of this, at the Aloha Stadium Swap Meet earlier that day, we saw a personalized license plate: “ARNAL”  and were talking about Dave and his mother!!

Shopping at the Aloha Stadium Swap Meet. Marianne looking for jewelry gifts and I need a hat. Still some rain and showers, but getting better on the south shore today. Getting warmer and very humid….

Waimea Beach Park

The flash flood waters washed out the center of the beach.  Usually so little water flow, it soaks into the sand and the whole beach is level!!
