Hawaii 2005
| SATURDAY | SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY |
- Itinerary:
- Day 1: Land, check in, relax
- Day 2: Watch kids build sand castles on the beach
- Day 3: Look at clouds and make pictures (birds, dragons, bunnies)
- Day 4: Make Zen garden out of space around your beach towel.
Most people would think of this as a waste of a trip to Hawaii, but I couldn't have imagined it any better (short of winning the Lottery or finding a buried treasure or other likewise unreasonable request). Did I read a good book? Nope. Did I go to a Luau? Nope. Did I at least have a Mai Tai? Well, a few one night, but not much the other times. A Mai Tai around noon and another one to finish off the sunset - that was about it. Did I find a swank nightclub? Nope - didn't even look.
I spent a week on the beach with nothing but my mp3 player with Breeze FM playing, a 95 cent straw mat and my hat/sunglasses. Oh, and the most important thing of all - my thoughts. I gave a lot of things some thought, and a gave a few things a lot of thought.
Thoughts without interuption - very meditative.
