We finally made it to Hawaii, and after a good night's sleep to work off that jet lag, I'm up and at 'em with another update for y'all!

Summary
Our flight passed without any complications, and it went by fairly quickly, all things considered (it probably helped that I spent most of the flight working on the Not Applicable RPG). We landed at the Kona-Kailua airport, changed into clothing more suitable for the humid Hawaiian summer, and set out across the island.

The first thing we did was go get lunch from a local family-run restaurant near the closest thing the island has to a "downtown" area. I ordered a dish called a Spam Moco, which was basically a plate of fried rice topped with homemade gravy, three slices of Spam (obviously), and a scrambled egg, all of which were delicious. For those of you who don't know, Spam is a staple food in Hawaii, becoming popular after it was introduced to the islands by US soldiers stationed there in WW2.

After that, we picked up some essentials from the only Walmart on the island (yes, there's only one) and drove around to do a bit of sightseeing. We visited a national park I can't remember the name of off-hand that had hiking trails built around the black lava rock comprising a good chunk of the area.

After all that, we finally drove to the resort we're staying at on the other side of the island and checked in, and with that, we've officially settled into Hawaii for the upcoming week or so.
