After 6:45 departure this morning from Fresno, we arrived in Honolulu at about 4:00 PDT. Everything went smoothly. We checked into our spartan dormitory rooms at Frear Hall and are now enjoying free time walking around the campus of the University of Hawaii, Manoa.
Tomorrow the orientation begins for real. Was surprised to hear today that there were 160 people who applied for this program (3 Xs as many as for Mexico or India). I'm feeling more honored to be here than before. Sometimes I think I get awarded things only because no one else applied.
Time to get back outside and enjoy the beautiful Hawaiian weather and sights.
