We flew from Tokyo to Honolulu. This time in Delta Airways' Business Class. After the KLM Business Class flight from Amsterdam to Osaka, Delta Airways' service was also very pleasant. However, KLM, Singapore Airlines, Emirates and Etihad's Business Class service is on a slightly higher level than Delta's. With another long flight ahead of us, we settled in, eager to see what Hawaii had in store for us.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9739\" src=\"http:\/\/gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-5.jpg\" alt=\"Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-2\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-5.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-5-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-5-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Arrival in Honolulu<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Upon arriving in Honolulu, we received a warm welcome with atmospheric music, instantly getting us into the mood!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9738\" src=\"http:\/\/gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-4.jpg\" alt=\"Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-2\" width=\"800\" height=\"510\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-4.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-4-300x191.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-4-768x490.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Everything at the airport went very smoothly, and we were soon in the taxi. Even though Hawaii is a state of the US, the procedure was quick. This is partly because we had all been to the United States before. The systems \u2018recognise\u2019 you, and that quickly saves at least an hour. If you've never been to the United States before, expect at least 1 to 3 hours for the procedure.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9740\" src=\"http:\/\/gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-6.jpg\" alt=\"Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-2\" width=\"800\" height=\"530\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-6.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-6-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-6-768x509.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>And of course, don't forget why it's taking so long. Everything is to protect us passengers.

We were staying at the lovely Hotel Halekulani, right on Waikiki Beach. I had, of course, been in that area before when I was travelling the world with groups from the USA, but I had forgotten what a vibe there is around Waikiki Beach. The atmosphere is incredibly relaxed.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9737\" src=\"http:\/\/gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-3.jpg\" alt=\"Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-2\" width=\"1200\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-3.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-3-300x144.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-3-1024x492.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-3-768x369.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The Halekulani Hotel was not only fantastic, but with a view of those high waves, the people in the sea, but especially the many surf dudes, I could only conclude that this would be the start of a fantastic tour of Hawaii.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9741\" src=\"http:\/\/gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-7.jpg\" alt=\"Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-2\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-7.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-7-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-7-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Oahu programme<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Our plan was initially to recover from the two long flights and the five amazing days in Japan.

We visited various hotels and restaurants suitable for (large) groups, for example for conventions, but also for festive occasions.<\/p>\n<p>We also spent time in the waves with our bodyboards, went shopping (which you can certainly do here), ate wonderfully, and enjoyed everything our resort had to offer.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9742\" src=\"http:\/\/gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu.jpg\" alt=\"Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-2\" width=\"800\" height=\"508\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-300x191.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.gomice.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Rondje-om-de-wereld-Oahu-768x488.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Waikiki, you just have to dive in and let the crowds wash over you.
