About a year and a half ago, I did a random Google search while at work of different places I might want to visit. I don’t know why Iceland came to mind but the images that came up were insanely beautiful. After that, I added Iceland to my list of places I want to go to. My…

California Fun
I spent the week in California because I had a few errands that I needed to take care of in San Diego. I also spent some time in Los Angeles visiting friends because life is too short and it’s important to make the most of everything you have. It ended up being a busy week with little down…
Honolulu Short Trip
I had a couple of work meetings in Honolulu that I had to attend and I was due for a staycation on Oahu anyway, so I made a short weekend trip to Honolulu before my work meetings the following Monday morning. After landing in Honolulu, I took public transportation to Waikiki and checked in to…
Southern California
Back in the late 2000s, I spent some time living in southern California. It has so much to offer and I had a great time when I was there. I was due for a visit since it had been over two years since the last time I went. I had a lot planned and I spent a…
Australia, Part 3: Sydney
Sydney was actually the first place I flew into when I landed in Australia. I had an eighteen hour layover before flying to MacKay to meet Dan and Dave. After they dropped me off at the Airport in Brisbane, I flew back to Sydney for two days. It was dark already when I landed in…
Australia, Part 2: Brisbane/Gold Coast
After several days of driving, Dan, Dave and I arrived in Brisbane from MacKay. The next few days were spent hanging around the Brisbane and Gold Coast area. DAY 1 They dropped me off in the city after I found out that Brooks, a guy I know from Honolulu, happened to be in Brisbane. After…
Australia, Part 1: Road Trip
I had been communicating with some friends from Toronto for quite some time about the possibility of taking a group trip somewhere. After some years, we were finally able to meet up in Australia. This was the first time I travelled with anyone other than myself since my friend Elvis in early 2010. I was a little…
Holidays on Oahu
I got lucky this year in that I got four days off work during the holiday weekend. Rather than stay in Kona, I decided to fly over to Oahu for my four days since airfare to the US mainland was expensive. I lived on Oahu for a while a few years ago and I go…
Seattle
I have always heard good things about Seattle, so I decided to make a trip out there since I knew some people there and had never been before. I’m glad I did. Seattle’s natural beauty rivals that of Hawaii and with a daily high of about 54 F, the weather could not have been better. DAY 1…
Oahu Day Trip
My work flew me to Honolulu for my annual physical needed as part of the requirements for my job. Since I got done early, I tried to make most of the day before flying back to Kona. After I got done with my physical and was given the clear to leave the doctor’s office, I drove over…
