Mom and I went on a little walk today. First we went to Eden off of Alii Drive (purple arrow) to get a little pedicure. Guess which pair of footsies are mine! Also, those wet spots are water from a leaky sprinkler nearby… Not the urine of a homeless person.
Then we had some beverages at Lava Java (blue arrow), the coffee shop nearby. This place has been around for like… centuries. I don’t know how it survives, but somehow it does. Alii Drive is almost like a revolving door for small businesses (The Hard Rock Cafe and Bubba Gumps Shrimp Company are both alive and well). Congratulations to Lava Java for persevering through thick and thin.
We went to the Old Airport (yellow arrow) to watch the sunset. Check it!
We ended up at the Sheraton (red arrow) because apparently you can see Manta Rays feeding off the shore in the evening best from this hotel. Well… I’m way too impatient to wait for the Manta Rays to decide to show up so mom and I had Mai Tais.

Mai Tai! How you doin?
Tomorrow, more adventure. This time: Hilo!
