Well, it's been a couple of years, but Reynald and I are ready for another big trip. This time, we're starting in Hawaii, then heading to Japan. Tonight we're leaving for Maui, where we'll be spending 6 days, then onto Honolulu, where we spend a couple nights before leaving for Tokyo. It might sound like a strange combination, but Hawaii is probably the perfect way to start getting a taste of Japanese culture. It has a large number of Japanese immigrants, and is one of the most popular international destinations for Japanese visitors.
We're flying out this afternoon, and will be staying at a little cottage in Haiku, Maui. Our main goal in Hawaii is to relax and rejuvenate. It's partly a reward for Reynald for finishing his PhD, and partly a pre-wedding honeymoon, since we may not have much time for one after the wedding in August. We plan to do a lot of exploring on the island and have left our itinerary pretty open. We're bringing some snorkeling gear with us, so we'll be spending lots of time in the water, and also hope to do a lot of hiking.
We're looking forward to seeing where the next few weeks take us. Feel free to leave comments, we'd love to hear from you.
