Waikiki


This is the view from the lanai of my hotel room at the Sheraton Waikiki in Honolulu. I arrived here Wednesday afternoon after a looooong day of travel. Getting up at 5 am for an 8:40 am flight is just, well, awfully early in the morning. However, I keep reminding myself that on Sunday, the Marathon will be starting at 5 am, and I'll be getting up at something like 2 or 3 in the morning to get there on time. And then, running/walking for 26 miles. Someone remind me why I'm doing this? Just kidding. I remember why: All the parts of San Francisco I've seen that I'd never seen before. New friends. A resting heart rate of 62 beats per minute. And over $3.6 million raised (so far! still not too late to donate!) in the Bay Area for the San Francisco AIDS Foundation.
