On Friday afternoon, I got to catch up with an old friend.  Yoon has been living in Hawaii for about 7 years now and it’s so fun to hang out with her again.  In the afteroon, we had Afternoon Tea at the Moana.  We spent about 2 hours sipping tea and enjoying the mini sandwiches and pastries.  The pot of tea was constantly refilled the whole time and they didn’t rush us out even though we were the last ones done and they were getting ready for the dinner service.

In the evening, we met up at Lulu’s for some bar food and drinks and to listen to Manoa DNA, which is a local cover band made up of a Dad, and his two sons Nick and Alex.  They are one talented family with a very rich sound and lots of energy.  Yoon was so excited to share her favorite local band with us and we were certainly not disappointed.

Afterward, we went over to Duke’s to meet up with Brother, Joy, and the cousins.  It was fun to just sit with them, relax, and laugh about random stuff.  It’s rare to have everyone together at once so this was definitely a special day.  I wish my family and friends were always this accessible to me.
