Early

5 AM. Early...

Those crazy winds I felt on the ground yesterday must have extended high in the sky. The flights landing in Kona were all late, pushing through the winds.

The plus side of the wind? It took only 4 1/2 hours to travel from Kona to Los Angeles. We landed at 5 AM instead of the scheduled 6 AM. Amazingly enough the terminal was already alive. Starbucks, an Americano and a cinnamon scone (yes, I know, not the healthiest breakfast, but it tastes good!) gave me a good start to the day.

It's time to wait for my next big bird.
