Departure Day 1 and Arrival at Bellows Air Force Station

Clicking on any picture will enlarge it for a better view

Heavy rain this morning in Phoenix as we left for the airport.  There's a one hour flight delay.  Take off now 8 am. 

Everyone has TSA pre check now making for a long line.  But it moved quickly.  Love not taking computer out of my bag and not taking my shoes off.

My first views, from the airplane as we approached Oahu.   WOW!





It's been a long day, it's 4:15 pm here in Oahu now, making it 7:15 pm in Phoenix.  We've been up since 3:30 am Arizona time, this morning.  I doubt I'll have any trouble sleeping this evening.

The condo here at Bellow Air Force Station is very nice; here are a few pictures for you.  We have a two bedroom condo on the 1st floor with a patio looking out to the Pacific ocean.   The beach is just across the road and while I haven't put my feet in the water yet, I will as soon as I can.   


The temperature is a humid 74 degrees with a delightful breeze.  It's been a long time since I've felt humidity like this; but with the constant light breeze, it feels great.  Especially with the cold winter we've been enjoying in Mesa.

We grabbed some lunch at a food truck, garlic shrimp while we waited for our condo to be ready.  It was excellent!  We were hungry!  


 





We went out to get a few groceries and this little guy greeted us in the parking lot.



Tomorrow is a day of sightseeing on our own; stopping to look at whatever we want.   We'll be able to catch up on the time zone change, as well.  And, maybe some beach time in the afternoon. More tomorrow.
