Hawaii

I went to Hawaii for a couple of days.   I just went to Wakiki, without a car, so all on foot.   Wakiki is a big shopping mall with hotels and a beach, plus some almost naked people carrying surfboards and some homeless people digging through the trash.

 

I didn't take many pictures, but I did take a couple -- of my coffee.  :-)   I had picked my hotel because it had a kitchen.   It has a almost full size fridge, with ice cubes in the trays (nice), an almost full size stove, with a cooktop & an oven, a rice cooker, some pots and plates and the like -- but it had no coffee maker.   I have not been in a hotel room in my memory that didn't have a coffee maker.   Even the hotels at the airports have coffee makers.

I had brought coffee, so I could get up in the morning after I arrived (I got there late at night) and have a cuppa.   I had even brought coffee filters, just in case.   But, but, but -- no coffee maker!   I even had cream -- but no coffee maker.   I even had a coffee cup -- but sadly, no coffee maker.

But I also had a rubber band -- and as I said, a pot, and a sink and a stove ...

So I had my cuppa after all.  :-)
