We had a small Thanksgiving dinner tonight for five people. This year’s turkey was slow-roasted and turned out pretty good! It seems like every year I try something different. 😁 As usual, my favorite dish was the oyster dressing. That, with some gravy on top, is so good!
Patrick’s blog post reminded me that we have an ultrasonic cleaner too, so I took the opportunity to clean all my eyeglasses. They’re crystal clear now!
Today, I picked up A Closed and Common Orbit from the library. It’s the second book in Becky Chambers’ Wayfarers series. I absolutely loved the first book, so I’m excited to dive back into this universe. Plus, it’ll be a nice change of pace to read from a physical book instead of a screen!
This morning, we stopped by Ala Moana Center for some shopping, and I ended up spending quite a bit of time at the Kanile’a Ukulele store. I fell in love with two ukuleles: a concert model with honu inlay and a soprano. Both were stunning, played effortlessly, and sounded incredible! The soprano, in particular, felt perfect in my hands, and with frets extending to the soundhole, I could easily play anything from my current repertoire. Someday, I’d love to make that ukulele mine!
In the afternoon, we went on an amazing 90-minute catamaran ride from Waikiki out around Diamond Head and back. The views were incredible, and as a bonus, they offered free alcoholic drinks – which, of course, we made the most of. What an awesome day!
Today, Kiki and I went for a ride to the café. I was excited to test out a new camera mode on my DJI Action 4, but things didn’t go quite as planned – I accidentally switched the exposure settings to manual, which resulted in all the footage being overexposed and completely unusable. Lesson learned!
On the bright side, the coffee at the café was fantastic, so the trip wasn’t a total loss. 😅

My camera & photos
I use a Fujifilm X-series camera for most of the photos on this site and my Instagram. Why not pick one up for yourself?
