At 4 AM this morning, we gathered outside of Vanguard and loaded the bus to take us to LAX. Sleep deprived, I immediately knocked out and didn't awaken until we reached our destination. Once we were on the plane, sleep deprived, I knocked out and didn't awaken until we reached our destination. I awoke to the decline of the plane and a view of Oahu creeping underneath us (I was fortunate enough to have the window seat). We broke up into vans to head to University of Hawaii, Manoa. On the way, we stopped to eat, and the first meal I had was a traditional one: Lau Lau and spam musubi. The campus is a beautiful place. As we got dinner in the cafeteria and walked around town, I couldn't help but feel like we stuck out as a group. My prayers are that we will be able to build close relationships with the locals we meet here. We still haven't been briefed on what specifically we will be doing yet. The staff and team are all very exhausted from a long weekend, and today has provided some much needed rest for what we have ahead of us.
