Waikiki

Mele Kalikimaka!

My parents went to 6:30am mass. I slept. I am working the evening shift tonight.

Upon their return, we opened “gifts”. We had taken photos of the gifts we had gotten each other and placed each photo in an envelope. That way we didn’t have to lug the gifts all the way here and home. Yet, we still had something to open on Christmas morning.

I went to work in the early afternoon.

Game 11: Baylor 61, Florida State 68
Championship: Butler 84, Washington State 68

Again, can’t say enough how enjoyable this tournament has been. And what a honor to be given this ‘gift’ – Christmas in Hawai’i. I am very blessed.

When I returned to the hotel, dad and I walked over to the famous Royal Hawaiian which is next door. We had mai tai’s and very overpriced burgers.
