First day of my vacation. Flying from Austin, Texas to L.A., California to my final destination. Oahu, Hawai'i.

Bucky accompanied my neck and sleep during my long flights. In LAX, heading over to baggage claim, they have a nice backsplash tiled while to amuse you. Well, it amused me. During my 3 hour layover here, I saw a sign that I always tell people. Half Full. :)

Love Candies. Who doesn't?

Late lunch at California Pizza Kitchen ASAP. It was ok.

After butt numbing experiencing of being on a plane for another 6 hours, I finally made it to Honolulu, Hawai'i. No more Howdy's here, it's Aloha time!

First stop before I rest for the night, Zippy's. Quick asian/hawaiian fast food.

Airport: Left at 5:15am. Morning coffee and breakfast at Austin java in ABIA with a good friend. (We both had to fly out) Southwest Airlines always give great customer service!! At Houston Airport, I had to get some latte from Peet's Coffee & Tea.

Random: I like the sign I saw while enjoying my 2 hour layover.

Philidelphia: Landed. Not much sight seeing here because I had to meet up the gals to eat my late lunch/dinner.  Wendy's daughter, Breanna, can never get my name right. Amy is close enough. That girl can work an iPhone better than most people I know! Huong's daughter, Kim Ngan (gray), is so smart and dieu! I love them both! We always eat at Nam Phuong , their family package is always a good deal! Bo Luc Lac here with watercrest has been and will be my favorite here.

Family: My cousin, Rosita, has the cutest baby girl, Emmabelle. I still can not believe she's expecting her baby boy in December!

Recap:  It has been a little over a year and a half since I have been back up here.  I enjoy seeing my family and friends here.  Off to bed early to hit the boardwalk for my jog!  <3 the ocean!
