Hawaii Day 1

I have never expected that i can go Hawaii one day for a few reasons:

1) Too far and expensive especially when we have beautiful beaches in Bali, Boracay that's nearer and cheaper

2) if there's tour, usually the itinerary do not include Hawaii but going Las Vegas, Disney land etc

3) Not that keen traveling to America, i want to travel to Spain, Europe, Greece that seems to be so exotic. 

When Shota said to choose either Guam or Hawaii. My friends told me to choose Hawaii and so i did. Of course i did conveyed my wish to go Greece but as most of u know. Japanese companies do not give their employees long leave, even my instructors in the driving school do not have annual leave at all apart from their Japanese Golden Week + they worked 5 1/2 days a week. 

Honestly speaking, my parents in law and grandparent in law treated us in particular me very well, even Shota always commented they treated me better than him. This time, my grandmother in law paid for all the air tickets and my parents in law paid for the hotel. 

Travelling from Aomori to Hawaii took us at least 1 day- We drove half hr to Aomori airport, 1 hr flight to Haneda, board 1 hr plus bus to Narita Airport and waited for our flight which took 6 hrs to Hawaii. Moreover, when we reached Hawaii it was early morning and we struggled to keep awake after the tiring journey and not to waste 1 day. Our hotel was an apartment styled hotel with 2 bedrooms and fully equipped with kitchen, washing machine etc. Best part, it was right outside the beach and our balcony faced the seafront! My mother in law had excellent taste in choosing the hotel. 

We went to the beach, walked around our hotel then returned to hotel to take a nap, had dinner and called it a night.
