Keys in hand!

We signed the lease to our Hawaiian apartment yesterday and we today we got our keys. They are some damn-fine looking keys, if I say so myself.

I have to say, our apartment is pretty sweet, and in a great part of town. We’re in Kailua, which is a cool little beach town on the east side of the island, or as they call it here, the windward side. Our criteria for finding a place was walking distance to the beach, a bar or three, a coffee shop and a supermarket. It was ambitious, but the town of Kailua said “I’ll see your criteria and I’ll raise you several bars, restaurants, and some other good stuff”. One of the bars is a Karaoke bar, which is major points, our new landlord took us to a great Chinese restaurant yesterday, there isĀ  a Safeway practically next door, a hardware store, a sushi place, a book store…the list goes on.

Close to beach, bars, supermarket, etc.

Now all I need is a bike with a surfboard rack , and we’ll be all set.

More to come on the inside of the apartment, and our painting or the walls.

    Wow, your landlord took you to a Chinese restaurant? I hope you and Gill returned the favor by serenading her at the karaoke bar with “Shoop.”
