Unsettling cost of living
www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-63624996
it’s always interesting to look at stats from other countries to see how the world is plodding along.
This time it’s wages v cost of living in the UK, where in the year to date apparently wages rose about 5.7% but cost of living calculated with inflation actually made it a wage decrease of about 2.7%.
Again can’t say if the source of the stats is credible but looking at life here in NZ it’s probably not far off.
Just having come back from Hawaii and noting how much prices have gone up there I’d say those stats are not too far off.
Live, laugh, fart 👍

I’ve slightly miscalculated my time so have to shoot through a few bits fast as I can to make my checklist happy so won’t be posting everything here .. but mostly will. Lol

The end.
The rest is personal stuff I need to do.

Note: if some images are small.. Click on them to view larger. For some reason WordPress app is messing up the thumbnails ..
Yawns… good morning humanoids it’s a stunning Monday morning here in Honolulu and a public holiday. . VA day I think they refer to it as.
Any hoo going to hunt down breakfast and then go exploring.
Walked a bit more on the beach just to see what’s the what’s. .
Well that’s enough of that.. time for lunch.. Ah ha.. lunch.. at…
… and that concludes the first half of today. . Head in back to the hotel for a shower and then off for afternoon adventuring 🙂
…..later in the afternoon….
Well had me a rest and cleanup and got the car and went random.
Didn’t actually have a destination in mind but ended up at the Temple Village.. of which there were a few temples and a small village..
Ok so mostly it was a Japanese temple…
So then I carried on.down whatever random road I was on and saw this old ruin..
Any hoo I carried on with a peckish feeling in my tummy.. and I found this place…
And oh my god… I had a garlic shrimp with salad on rice.. it was Devine. …..
Had a chat with Sham, the owner.. very chill dude… was kool to know he has relations living in NZ. Small world eh. 🙂
If you’re ever in Hawaii on Oahu .. go to that place… The address is:
56-565 Kamehameha Kahuku.
So that about ended the photos.. it was dark by the time I was ready to hit the road.. so I ended up driving to the North Shore and then cut back through the middle of the island back to Honolulu.
Freshened up and now I’m going to go for a night walk though to waikiki and the strip and see what’s buzzing.
Good night.
Tomorrow I’m going on a submarine tour so that should be fun. Tune in tomorrow night for another update.

Jenivie loves pineapples and celebration of that.. there’s a picture of a dole pineapple truck.

Checked into hotel.. nice. Got upgraded.. nicer.
Then went off to visit my bestie jen.
Something I did that was the stupid. . I upgraded the maps on my Gps before I left home.. n guess what.. yea. Different routes now to jens place.. aarrgghh so annoying lol..
Any how’s. . Got.there sadly. Visited for a few hours and left because I was absolutely shattered from the flight.. got back to hotel and crashed out.
Just woke up. It’s. Now about 11:30 pm.
It’s raining hard out. .oh well at least it’s warm.
I’m across the road at an actual Dennys for a very late dinner.

See how the weather holds.. might go.for a wee walk after.. otherwise back to bed.
Jens birthday tomorrow, so I’ll be there for most of tomorrow. If it’s not raining in the morning I might quickly pop into a shop in grab a few tee shirts as I didn’t grab much from home.
Good night 🙂
Hawaii 2013 – on my way there
Flight – Hawaiian airlines from Auckland to Honolulu overnight.

Inside the craft.. Bowing A330 I think.
Nice plane.. really clean and bright and tidy. Staff really nice.
Really nice gal sitting next to me.
I get a window seat. :p
Have to admit the seat get is a little restrictive though.. I’m only just comfortable. . And I’m not even that big.
Picture out window here.
Sort of boring as it’s dark outside
We’ll. . Might as well settle in for the flight. Good night peeps.. see you on the island side of life 🙂
As a side note.. we get dinner and breakfast on this flight.
Dinner was epic. . For airplane food. There was a lovely fresh salad and a chicken and mushroom mains with a side of rice. It was cooked perfectly.
Oh and manuka honey biscuits. . Yum yum 🙂
.. Meh. . Can’t sleep…. watching x files. .doesn’t help. Cute gal next to me passed out… she smells nice.. is that pervy or what lol :p oh well..
As I look around I see most people sleeping.. A few watching the on board entertainment thing.
The peeps are asleeps 🙂
Gosh hope I can at least get some sleep.. predicted weather in Oahu is 28 degree Celsius. 70pct chance of rain.
It’s going to be sticky.
