New blog launch: Thank God for a good day in Tacoma, Washington Aug 13, 2019 Tacoma Museum of Glass, Point Defiance etc..



I decided to keep my travels, Transformers, and things I wanted to do separate from now on. This blog site will focus more on my travels while my sister blog: iamterenceho.blogspot.com will focus more on Transformers. My old travel blogs will still be in the old site as it is easy accessible when you hit on the "Life outside TF"  links.

Anyhow I recently returned to Seattle and just to spend time with friends. Anyhow, let's get started.

August 13, 2019: Tacoma Museum of Glass, Tacoma Dome, University of Tacoma Washington.

Nice area. I finally got to check out Tacoma. Imo, there isn't much to do here but it has a nice scenery in the Museum of Glass area. You can even see Mt Rainier on a good day from here. The funny thing is that I didn't even know Udub Tacoma was here but it made a nice stroll and photo-op. 


Point Defiance

Shake Shake Shake burger- Tacoma



 This is a definite must see while you are in Tacoma. Point Defiance park is a beautiful and maintained trail/park. You get to see cars waiting to board the ships to cross the Gig harbor and you get the pleasure to take a nice stroll alongside Owen beach. You can also see Mount Rainier from here as well. There is a nice Rose garden in the park as well. Worth a look especially in a good day. Afterwards I had to eat Shake Shake Shake. Very good burger joint. I was craving it.


Day II: coming up soon.

Hawaii Foodiecon 2025 and Yakiniku Like.

  Yakiniku Like Foodiecon was a enjoyable experience. Quite a bit of food vendors. It can be fairly expensive depending on the stuff you buy. Got to try Yakiniku Like over here in HNL. Brings me back to Sapporo which was actually only two months ago. Once again, good if you want a quick meal but if you hoping to be fulfilled, you may want to check into a Yakiniku buffet instead.

Sapporo, Japan Feb 2025 (Pic Heavy)

  Early February trip to Japan. Feb 2 (Hawaii time) Flight from HNL to New Chitose  Food from ANA airlines. Was not a direct flight. One layover. Then a one hr train ride to Sapporo from New Chitose Airport. Landed around 1030PM at night.  (Each day categories pics start from bottom to top, sorry didn't feel like fixing this).  Feb 3 ( Sapporo) (Will be Japan dates from this moment forward) The famous Nikka sign and pretty much a midnight snack before bed. According to google, the restaurant is called Asahi Ga Nobori Susukino and its right across the Nikka sign and has a animatronic ramen display. It's a good restaurant that features a staple of Sapporo: Miso. One of the few places that is open to a much later time. I think 3AM?  Feb 4  Nijo Market  Yup. Hawaii. Nijo Market. Brunch pretty much at Ohiso . Gets packed quick so find a spot to catch your grub quickly. Lots of similar restaurants around here like Ohiso but like I sai...

Another day in Hawaii-Nei 8/11/20 Murals in Oahu.

Well, since hikes and most of the beach (non-swimming) are out of the question. I tried to go the non-Kaka'ako areas to take pics of murals though I ended up going to Kaka'ako for a little bit to scope out my next mural adventure. Without haste, lets get started. Before I start, copyright and credit are given to the respective owners of the murals/paintings. Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your pieces of art. I'll also do my best to address the locations as best as possible for those interested. Mural #1     Location:   939 Ke’eaumoku St, Honolulu, HI 96814.  Its the strip club 939 across Dominoes Pizza . This one caught my eye simply because I drive around this area frequently and I saw it the other day, so I decided to inspect it up closer. *Update Feb 2021* Apparently, the girl's chest in the painting is whited out now if you decide to sojourn into this area. What a way to ruin some art, really. Kinda ironic when it's still a stripclub.  ...
