Extremely Productive Day

Aloha Everyone,

Did my morning walk, dropped off our laundry, then to Wells Fargo Bank where we took care of two different issues.  Stopped at our storage locker to pick up two more suitcases. Staples to print the luggage tags for our upcoming cruise to the Hawaiian Islands, Tahiti, New Zealand and Australia. Walmart to purchase a few items. Our final stop was at Tokyo Central to restock on bottled drinking water and takeout bento boxes for two days.

My sister came by to give me 5 clothes hangers. We are dealing with bureaucratic red tape, AGAIN! Our new room lacks one kitchen chair and one living room recliner. When we requested for them, it appears that the new ESA (Extended Stay America) rule requires that the front desk person send a requisition to headquarters. Days are gone when one of the housekeepers would go and get missing items, including clothes hangers, from rooms that are not being used due to ongoing renovation.

Anticipation of Federal Reserve lowering interest rates, today’s US stock market hit all time highs.

Aloha -- Cathi
