Longggg travel day. Left our hotel this morning at 7:30 a.m. local time. Arrived in our Honolulu hotel about 8:30 p.m. local time. With a 5-time zone difference, that makes it about 18 hours from hotel-to-hotel.

This shot was taken at Sea-Tac (Seattle-Tacoma International Airport), during our layover there.
