Finally I am settle down (means fully unpack) in Hawaii.
That was a long journey from KL to HI.
The night flight from KL to Japan was quite okay since it was the started of the journey. But when I arrive in Narita airport, the queue for custom clearance was quite long. I took hotel shuttle no.27 outside the airport to Marroad Hotel. The check-in time is 1pm daily so after I left the luggages with the belt boy, I took the Circle bus to LaOx. And still the time was too early (shopping mall open at 10:00am) and I waited about 15 min together with a whole bunch of people (are they tourists too?).
After window shopping, I headed to Shinsoji temple (Naritasan Temple) and had my lunch there. Narita is a small town. The shops along the road are authentic Japanese style and quite impressing. I like the town but too bad I didn't have much time to survey each shop after the lunch.
I walked back to Narita Train station (quite confusing) and luckily still on time for the 16:35 bus to get back to hotel.
I left only 1 hour sharp to check-in hotel and took a refreshing shower before began another part of my journey again.
Some funny things happenned along the way like I overslept for 15 min in hotel and missed the 17:10 bus from hotel to Narita airport. And when we check-in, I requested for window seat. The officer asked if I speak English and he arranged a seat at the emergency exit to me. "We may need your help if emergency happen, other than that, there are more room for that seat and that's good for you." I was quite happy for that moment as I used to envy those who sit at the emergency exit area, that they can stretch their legs and no one blocking them right infront.
The moment I board the plane and I started to realise that the earlier thought is wrong. There's no TV for that seat. Well, that doesn't really matter to me. But the window of my window seat is actually not next to me. It's positioned for the seat behind me.
So next time when requested for window seat, I would have to ask: "window seat with multimedia and window?" hahaha
Arriving in Honolulu, HI at 7:25am local time on the 26th morning. Taken a taxi to Hawaii Kai Dr and so far quite happy with the place, more than happy in fact! This area is surrounding by mountains and ocean. I estimate the weather wrongly and it's quite cold as the wind is so strong almost all the time. Yeah, it's spring. My room is freezing at night :( I wish I have more thicker clothes for this weather. If not, I would have enjoying the weather sooo much! It's cool!

East Entrance of Naritasan temple
Lantern is one of the symbolic of Japanese culture. They have a huge one at the entrance.
Narita Cuite - 600 yen each, too expensive
Rushing for a shuttle but got LOST near Naritasan temple! People there are so friendly but too bad we don't understand each other's languages :)
