2nd hawaii post

hey all. so i figured i'd post my second post about hawaii, even though i'm already back on the mainland.

so yes. load in took forever, i helped hang the lights and the strand lbx board is officially the worst board ever created and I hope to never see it again. I know that doesn't mean a lot to you all, but it does to me and I had to put it out there.

After load in we went to an amazing place and I had some of the best sea food ever. It was a nice end to a relaxing day.

The shows went well and after the shows on monday I rented a paddle board for 2 hours. A paddle board is a surf board that you stand on and suprise suprise have a paddle and row yourself around. a lot harder than it looks. i fell off alot, alot alot. i was too scared at first to try and catch waves, but after the 1st hour i was feeling better about it and stayed in for another hour. in my second hour i caught 2 waves, it was AWESOME and so worth every minute of falling off. some day I will paddle board again, and actually catch waves. yay.

problem with paddle boarding was that the next day my uppper legs were in so much pain ! omg, my muscles were KILLING me. it was a little ridiculous. like sore to the touch, could barely bend over or sit down and stand up. took 2 whole days to go away even with stretching for at least an hour every day. craziness.

after that we went to maui. maui was pretty cool, but i didn't get to do much, went to a movie with one of the actors (fired up, hilarious) as well as on the last day checked out this town calle paia, where i will officially move someday. I will move to paia, get a little dog, a surfboard/paddle board, a motorcycle and sleep either in a hammoch or a mattress on the floor or a tent somewhere. so if anyone wants to join, let me know. oh i also would love to open a coffeehouse/bakery/bead shop while i'm there if i can't work in theatre. sounds like a plan right?

so at the end of the day Hawaii=awesome. i loved the warm weather, the ocean everywhere, the breeze, the laid back attitude of island living. i'd love it there. so that's it. now i'm in west virginia, huntington. staying at a best western for a few days shaking off this jet lag, well i think. so that's it. i'll update again when anything exciting happens.
