    With Seatac parking rates running at $30/day, it seems like there have to be some alternatives. When I have time (which ain’t often I admit), I do use off-airport parking. There are amazingly few sites that cover recommendations for this. Last recommendation by a human is from 2002 in google! If you can believe that.…

  • Bookends, Lanikai Juice and Morning Brew in Kailua

    BookEnds | Store/Shop Review | Oahu | Frommers.com. If you are on this end of the island, stop here. They are one of those great bookstores like “Bailey Coy”:http://seattle.citysearch.com/profile/10773009/ in Seattle that seems to select just the best books. In this case, Bookends is particularly good at children books. Also a good used selection for…

  • Cool Sayings

    Heard on the street… Imagine a kid climbing up a steep hill towards a water slide that you ride head down (no it is not dangerous, you use a map and there is a bumper in the front). And as Dad fills the air with advice, little guy says, “Hey Dad, can you just let…

  • Apple falls 10%

    Apple Stock Sinks Despite Robust Profits. A good example of buying after the rush. Despite higher earnings, it is going to be hard for Apple to match the PE. It hit a high of $45 and is now at $36. Another reminder the key to making money is finding things that no one else knows…

  • Zia's Caffe

    RealEats – User Restaurant Reviews for Zia’s, Kailua, Hawaii. Good family restaurant. Get there early since they don’t take reservations. The Chocolate Overload is good, but I like the pasta particularly the linguine. There’s aren’t any great reviews for Hawaii that I could find. “Pubcrawler”:http://www.pubcrawler.com/Template/dsp_restaurant_zoom.cfm/flat/ID=414251 just had the basics yellow page information for instance. “Kailua…

The kids have already seen grey whales, but not Connie, this is a quick cruise out of Waikiki, by Fishersman’s Wharf for an hour and a half. Not too expesnive and fun. Personally i’d rather be on a sailing cat, but what the heck 😀
