This is me working in Hawaii.

This is me pretending to work in Hawaii. Or, maybe not, actually.

I miss the sunshine and sand between my toes. Two more months of winter in NYC… sigh.

The last day, we had a nice breakfast under a big hau tree canopy and soaked up the last of the sun on the beach.

I was wearing my Heatherette unicorn shorts, an old pink tank from Luella and this new Roxy rainbow bikini that I scored on sale in a surf shop in Haleiwa.

After the beach, we headed to this place called Leonard’s, famous for it’s malasadas. The line inside was indeed long, with more locals than tourists — always a good sign.

Love the old-school neon and the pink box. Hate the cluster of mosquito bites on my right arm.

The malasadas tasted kind of like donuts to me, and the cinnamon ones were yummier than the plain sugar ones. We had two each, and were left with sugar all over our faces.

Last night: watching hula dancing and listening to Hawaiian music under the kiawe tree at the House Without a Key, with a gorgeous sunset as the perfect backdrop. Just another day in paradise…

I just landed in Honolulu, Hawaii. It’s nice to feel the warm breeze on my wintery pale (not much longer!) skin. I’m here for two weeks, the first one work and the second play. Such a nice treat. Now I am off to find some yummy fish for dinner. Aloha!

Det är ju jättejobbigt att jobba på Hawaii, men någon måste göra det. Skulle kunna vänja mig vid detta ganska snabbt…

P.S. Efter denna vecka kommer min blogg finnas på johannabjork.com och en till adress som jag berättar mer om snart.

Working in Hawaii is very hard, but someone’s gotta do it. Could get used to this very quickly…

P.S. After this week my blog will be at johannabjork.com and another address I will tell you more about shortly.

Dagens inköp i Honolulu: en Hawaii-klänning och två nagellack i färger som heter “Island Dream” och “Aloha Paradise.” Väldigt passande. Aloha och godnatt.

Today’s purchases in Honolulu: a Hawaii-dress and two nail polishes in shades named “Island Dream and “Aloha Paradise.” Very appropriate. Aloha and good night.
