15.00 - A good day so far. I woke up early, as usual, on my own in the dorm as my room mate has left. I finally figured out how to use the shower then I decided to sort my rucksack out! It took the best part of an hour to do after which I went to the shop and bought swim shorts, beach towel, a padlock and antihistamine cream as I was bitten to shreds by the mozzies yesterday. After a quick bite to eat, I went to catch the bus to the beach where I met some people who were on the tour yesterday. We got talking and ended up at the beach together. They are a lot older than me and we don't have much in common but hey, it's better than nothing! The beach is nice although the weather today is not up to scratch. Warm but cloudy. Snorkelling is the highlight here with lots of colourful fish but the coral reef is a bit disappointing. My neck and nose are burnt so I am covering up, not that there is any sun! 18.30 - The days just seem to be getting better. After the beach we went back to Waikiki beach to get some food at Denny's where we got talking a bit better. The guys are from Switzerland, Sweden and Liechtenstein of all places! I still feel a bit like an outsider especially since I am not old enough to even buy a drink! I think I maybe should have come travelling when I'm a bit older. Too late now though!
