Day 5 - Honolulu, Hawaii

Left California for Hawaii. The Americans are very well organised when it comes to rental cars. Signs on the freeways, special lanes at the airport and people to meet you and take the car when you arrive. Very easy.

Checked in for our United Airlines flight to Hawaii - opted to upgrade this time to Premium Economy and glad we did. Much roomier seats and we had three to ourselves so could relax more. Flight 5.5 hours - we went through a couple of 'cells' as we descended towards Honolulu. Not too bad but the plane seemed to accelerate forwards a couple of times rather than going down.

Honolulu cloudy as we arrived. Taxi to hotel in Waikeke at the end of their rush hour at 6pm. Small room with noisy air conditioner. Went out for a Thai meal for supper - very good. Had an early night as it was a tiring day and off to the Big Island tomorrow.
