Emel and I started our day with a quick hike to Manoa Falls. It was a great day and not too muddy (much better than the last time I hiked it). After that, we headed to Josh’s base so Emel could see what a military base looks like. We met Josh for lunch and had some pretty fantastic sushi and treated ourselves to Starbucks before our base tour (efficiently led by Josh). Then she headed to the beach and I headed to work.

After work, we attempted to have a healthy dinner (after all of the food we had been consuming) of Asian chicken salads…we then ruined them by finishing off the malasadas (still just as good the next day). Tomorrow is her last day…I will MISS her!

I have missed this!

A delicious Asian Chicken Salad (and healthy)!
