I got up at about 4 o'clock due to the influence of jet lag. As tomorrow's marathon would start at 6 o'clock, awakening at this time was advantageous to me. However, it was too early to go out, and I examined its route to know where there were tourist spots on the route. I didn't want to fail to see and shoot them.
I was going to visit KCC Farmers' Market to have breakfast, which seemed to be the liveliest one among the same kinds of markets on Oahu island. The market is supposed to be held every Saturday morning. The market was a long way on foot and I learned how to use the local bus from my travel guidebook. The passengers get on the bus through the front door and get tickets from the driver. I got a one-day ticket and this enabled me to freely move by bus as far as I liked. That was really helpful for tourists.
時差ぼけのため早朝覚醒。明日のマラソンスタート時刻が朝６時なので身体を慣らすには都合が良いが、出かけるには早いので朝食前にマラソンコースの予習。と言っても走るための予習ではなく、コース上のどこにどのような観光スポットがあるかという下調べ。
今日はオアフ島で一番賑やかだというＫＣＣファーマーズマーケットへ向かう。土曜日の午前中だけ開催されている。日本で言うところの産直市。そしてここで朝食を摂る予定。そしてその前にオアフ島の路線バスデビュー。まだ乗ったことが無いので利用方法をガイドブックなどで調べたものの、ちょっと緊張気味に乗車。前乗りで一日フリー乗車券を購入。これで一日何回でも、どこまで乗ってもＯＫ。旅行者には優しいシステムだ。
