I have an image of traffic congestion around the beach where the sea turtles are shelling, but I saw that construction was going to be done in that area before, and I wonder if the construction is finished and the traffic congestion has improved. ？ I have not been to the North Shore since before Corona.

I think #1 would like to know the status of construction near Turtle ・ Beach or Laniakea ・ Beach, where sea turtles dry their shells, the resulting traffic congestion, and parking availability. I don't know what the current situation is because I didn't go to the beach myself because I thought it would be crowded.

I think the mainland has a tremendous amount of it these days, so it's sometimes full
Maybe not in the North, but Kailua has a lot of closed parking lots for some reason and everyone is going around in circles Maybe not in the North, but in Kailua, there are a lot of closed parking lots and everyone is going around.

You will be notified of fingerprinting rather soon after you apply

and then you can leave the country after that your lawyer will send you a re-entry permit to your home. You will then be sent a re-entry permit to your lawyer or to your home (you do not need to be in the US at that time) and you will carry it with you the next time you enter the US for immigration
The re-entry permit itself is very similar to a passport
It has the same face and photo as your green card. photo.

Off topic, but I saw a local news story about green card holders
about a day or so ago.

Seattle resident who emigrated from the Philippines 50 years ago and lived there. She works as a state employee for the state of Washington.
She traveled to the Philippines for 2 weeks in February,
returned and was taken to the Seattle airport by ICE and is still in custody
. No reason given. My lawyer can't seem to do anything.
My trial starts in July, so I think I will have a hard time in jail for a long time. It seems that many green card holders are detained. ？

For your information!

https://www.kiro7.com/news/local/50-year-resident-green-card-holder-being-held-ice-detention-tacoma/ELG6SVET25CXFBHCTG5 ENOBGGU/

The situation in question, in terms of convictions, is that he was convicted of embezzlement in 2001, but he has never gone to jail and has not been convicted of any other acts since.
He says that CBP immigration inspectors are becoming more strict than in the past, and that even old convictions and cases that did not result in convictions can result in inadmissibility.

In the article, immigration attorneys are advised to be careful about traveling abroad if they have any concerns （ for example, criminal involvement ） in the past.

Nice to meet you
We are currently in the process of getting a green card with an attorney.
However, the attorney we have hired is ignoring our emails and phone calls, which is causing delays in various procedures and stress in our lives.
Therefore, we would like to know if we can fire this immigration attorney and sue him for emotional distress, etc. If you know of any litigation attorneys, please let us know. Thank you in advance.

Before that, why didn't you change lawyers before you felt the pain ？
Besides, I don't think you're wasting your time getting involved with such lawyers any more. Hawaii is full of these looser people and they are all unreasonable as long as you live here.
But if you don't have the mentality to accept unreasonableness and move forward, I think you will have a more stress-free and comfortable life in Japan.

Good evening.
I am sorry to hear that you have had an unsuccessful attorney.
You can easily apply for a green card by yourself or your husband.
It is not a case that requires a lawyer. Good luck.

How is everyone's happiness in Hawaii ？?

  • Hauʻoli

If anyone says I am happy, please let me know.

In my opinion, it is easier to be unhappy than in the past.
In the past = no things, no people, no friends = no wonder = happy with something = happy

Now = there are things (convenient machines like smartphones), lots of people (you can connect with people anytime via SNS, matching apps, etc.) = always have the ideal things. (You can always connect with people on social networking sites, etc., and you can choose as many people as you want on matching apps, etc.) = I think this is the main reason for the low level of happiness among people today.

I agree with #3, #4, and #5, the Net is a fast way to get connected, but it's also a fast way to get disconnected. It's like after watching a big firework show
you hit it off and it was a mistake ｡
my friend's daughter is getting married to a guy she met on the Net from another state, so she sends her luggage and even her wedding dress. We had a fight over a trivial matter and the luggage was sent back to THE END. When I saw the returned white wedding dress hanging on the door, I was so shocked. My hand went to my forehead and I had to think about it. I felt pain, but I was glad that I didn't have to drag the wound with me. It was a great Speed feeling. So this is Net
I can't do it. I am enjoying the happiness of living in Hawai'i by growing plants in my garden and expanding my roots through water💦growing in the course of a day within my range.

I'm sorry to hear about your friend's daughter.
Perhaps she did not have a green card
I doubt it ？
Very few men want to sponsor her, so it is easier for a green card holder or
US Citizen woman to get married or remarried.

Even if you get married through friends, pickups, or in-house marriages, you will get divorced, so
I don't think it matters how you meet people.

For couples who have been married once unsuccessfully
it is better to live together and then remarry
without risk to both parties.

If you know of a place in Honolulu, preferably near Ala Moana or Downtown, where I can get my watch battery changed, please let me know. The battery in my watch that I use for work has run out and I need to get it replaced ASAP, but the watch shop on Pensacola St. that I usually go to is on vacation until 12/14, so I am in a bind. It is a simple watch with water resistance.

I am the one who consulted here last December.
The watch shop on Pensacola St. that has served us for many years, the owner retired and closed the store, but a new owner renovated the old store and opened a watch repair shop with the same name, Crown Time House. I went there as soon as I could and the new owner was very nice and friendly. There is also a parking lot.

Cell phone when temporarily returning to Japan

When I returned to Japan 2 years ago, I bought a Japanese sim card that I could use all the time, and I used it in my American iPhone
Then I bought a new American iPhone, but the times have changed and you can't put a sim card in it anymore.
I'm going back to Japan in May, so I'm doing a lot of research and I'm getting confused about E sim cards 😅

In Japan, I put my American iPhone in Airplane mode and use it in the U.S. In Japan, I plan to use my iPhone in Airplane mode and use Wi-Fi. And I wonder if it is possible to use the LINE app on my old iPhone with the account I use in the US. Two years ago, I just switched to a Japanese sim card on my American iPhone and LINE was connected normally.

If anyone knows the best way to use two iPhones in this environment, please let me know.
Please do.

Sim Card ＆ E I don't know much about Simi cards, but in our case, we have three iPhones （ that we usually use in the US. I use LINE installed on my iPhones ） when I go back to Japan by connecting to free public Wifi or Wifi at the hotel or other places where I stay. Also, when my kids went to Japan last year with some friends, they rented a pocket Wifi at the airport （ for about 300 yen per day ？ ） and used it when they needed to connect to it during their stay. Unfortunately, I can't give you advice on that since it was a long time ago when I tried to swap Sim cards like Phone did, but I hope others can give you some good advice.

I think E sim is the easiest.　If you are not confident about setting it up yourself, there are counters at the airport where you can have it installed.

Thanks for your kind share! Thank you very much for your kind share. I used to use my phone in the same way without any problem, but when I came back to Japan 2 years ago, I bought a Japanese Sim card with a Japanese phone number on it, so I would like to use it if possible.
I'm not sure if the same account can be used on two iPhones, even if the iPhone is set to Airplane mode and the LINE app is used in the U.S. The world has become too convenient for my brain to keep up.

If things get complicated, I'd like to use E sim, but I don't want to waste the E sim for Japan that I already purchased.

I have the same account on my ipad, and I am also using the same account on my Galaxy tablet. However, when I logged on to my Galaxy tablet the other day with the account I use on my iPhone, the line on my iPhone stopped connecting to my account on my iPhone, saying that it had been transferred to another device and was no longer available. After deleting the line on my galaxy, I can use it again on my i phone, but my past talk history is gone. I can set up a backup of my talk history in the settings of the line, so I set up a backup just in case.

I am looking for a school that supports schoolwork like a Japanese tutoring school. I would prefer a place where I can go face-to-face if possible, but online is also fine.

I am planning to go see the Nagaoka Fireworks this weekend.
I know it's best to watch from Waikiki, but I'm worried about traffic restrictions, parking, etc. since I'm coming from Eva.
Is there a place where we can park our car and enjoy the fireworks even if it is a little far away ？
I can't go early because of my child, so if I want to see them in Waikiki, should I park somewhere far away （ downtown or ？ ） and take a bus? ？ I guess.

It's a bit far, but
you can see it from the KCC parking lot.
Take exit 6, turn right at the end of the street, and go straight to the parking lot.

It is not as powerful as the one in Waikiki, but it is impressive.

It's almost spring break and my family and I are planning to travel to Sydney and the Gold Coast.
But I have a phobia of airplanes and even a slight tremor makes me cry … I am looking forward to the trip because I heard that the Oceania area is very bumpy, but I am more scared than that …
I have heard that the Honolulu line is often bumpy, but I have never been that afraid of it.
I would appreciate it if you could give me some advice on how to ease my fear, whether you have a phobia of flying or you fly a lot and don't feel scared at all when the plane shakes. I wonder why there is no one around me who is scared. I wonder if it is safe even if it shakes a lot.
I have a phobia of airplanes, but I still take airplanes.

I have heard that the probability of an airplane crash is lower than that of a car accident, and even if the plane shakes, there are announcements saying that the plane is flying through the air currents and that it will shake, but that it will be okay, so I don't worry about it. I think the key is to relax and let the shaking take control of your body. You feel the same way when you ride in a car on a rickety road, don't you? When an airplane takes off, it is less stressful on your body if you are relaxed.

Thanks for the advice.
relax and don't be rigid ！ same as a rickety road ！
I know. I read somewhere that the chances of a plane crashing are lower than winning the lottery, almost zero.
There are so many planes flying a day that you can't even count them.
Flight attendants and pilots would not take such a risky job, would they?
