    Sounds like it's time to take a month. 2 weeks quarantine and 2 weeks of good life.....

    Of course you will most likely be ostracized as a tainted mainlander.

    Being looked down upon by the locals is just part of the charm over there. Me and my extended family own a house on the windward side of Oahu, and everywhere we go to eat out is a locals joint, so you get use to the sneers. It's nothing that buying a couple rounds of beers won't fix though.

    I hear that. The local surfers were constantly introducing me to folks from the island so I could be introduced around as an O.K. guy if I ever went over.

    Problem is I do not swim so have no desire to be on a ship or flying over the water, Nor confined with that many people on a glorified bus. At least with I bus I can jump out the window (even at Highway speeds) and maybe survive. The trips over and back would be torture for me....

    You have to learn about ports and rails.
    The best way, when your numbers don’t match theirs, or even VGM don’t match is to start singing.
    This song works.


    Now, obviously, don’t do it if it’s some guy, but usually the ladies become more helpful.
    This from a guy who pulled from CN,UP,CSX,NS rails on daily/every other day for 4.5 years.
    It works at port of Jax too.
