They are two very, very cute guinea pigs. They are friendly and good like a family. I have to go back to Japan for my own illness and treatment. I do not want to leave them, but I cannot take them to Japan. I am posting this in the hope that I can find a kind-hearted foster family …. If anyone is interested in adopting him, please contact me. Thank you very much in advance.

I don't have much experience in cooking, and I tried to make cookies with pancake mix using the recipe on the box, but while baking, I panicked and opened the window all the way because there was a huge smoke-like steam-like substance that came out. I guess it was because the cookie sheet I used was Waxtex Waxed Paper ？ I looked closely at the recipe instructions and saw that it was an ungreased cookie sheet. If the cookie sheet I used is the problem, is this paper for wrapping things or for microwave use and not for use in the oven?

I am planning to return to Japan temporarily with my child around the end of May or beginning of June. We are planning to take Hawaiian Airlines Honolulu-Fukuoka Airport flight for the first time, sightsee for a few nights in Fukuoka, and then take a domestic flight (probably ANA) back to our local airport.

If you took a Fukuoka flight recently or last summer vacation, how crowded was the Fukuoka Airport Hawaiian Airlines check-in counter on the plane, at Fukuoka Airport, and on the way back to Hawaii ？

Also, when returning to Hawaii ？ I am worried that I will have to push my suitcase and stroller. I usually take direct flights, so this will be my first time connecting.

Thank you very much.

I've heard that the level of public schools in Hawaii is among the lowest in the U.S. Is the public school system wiped out ？
Do you have any recommendations for those who currently have children in public schools ？
For private schools, Iolani and Punahou are well known, but the tuition from Kinder to I think it is a little too expensive to pay for more than 10 years of tuition from Kinder.

I was hoping to get your comments on collecting miles to use for award tickets between Hawaii and Japan.
I would like to hear about your favorite company, how you collect miles, etc. I myself am currently collecting miles with Delta Air Lines Amex Gold, but I am considering doing so after I have used up all my current miles on award tickets.
The reasons for this are
- Delta's Amex Gold annual fee will be $ 100 => $ 150 （ $10,000 spend bonus will increase to $ 100 => $ 200 and new hotel credit $ 100, which is not bad in general ）.
- I plan to use my BILT MasterCard to pay rent and accumulate points, but the airlines I can transfer points to are Hawaiian, United, and American Airline in the US.
- My destination is Nagoya, so I will be flying Delta to Haneda ＞ Shinkansen to Nagoya is a bit inconvenient in terms of time ・ and money. On the other hand, it is possible to fly to Nagoya with JAL/Hawaiian.

Based on the above 3 points, I think that if I were to migrate, it would be to Hawaiian ～ ？.
On the other hand, I may continue to use Delta, $ consider the 200 bonus as bullet train fare, or use BILT points as Hawaiian miles for Interisland flights.

With my current Delta card, I have been earning 12,000 - 15,000 miles per year for the last few years.
I think ？ the miles I get from purchases are roughly the same if I use the Hawaiian card as my main card.

Recent flights are
- Summer 2022 ： Purchased direct Nagoya flight on JAL
- Winter 2022 ： Purchased direct Nagoya flight on JAL, miles earned on Hawaiian
- Summer 2023 ： On JAL Purchased direct flight to Nagoya with JAL, mileage credited to Hawaiian
- Winter 2023 ： Awarded flight to Haneda with Delta
So, twice a year, I will return home by myself.
Seat is normal economy.

Note that the mileage requirement for a Delta Honolulu Haneda award ticket is roughly 94,000 - 104,0000 miles in Main Cabin economy.
The credit card award gives you 15% off the required miles, so it's actually 80,000 - 88,000 miles.

Of course, I understand that your destination, class of service, and usual mileage accrual are not the same, but
I would be happy to hear your opinions.

I get sick from the smell of marijuana.

I've never had a problem telling people this, but
lately my friends are giving me trouble.
All of them are American.

If you are over 30 and don't like marijuana, how do you deal with it ？

I thought about just making new friends, but I don't know where to go to make American friends who don't smoke pot.
I don't go to bars or nightclubs.

I've heard it's getting worse, but I'm not sure how it really is ？
Is it dangerous to walk to work or walk during the day while wearing earphones ？
I think I live in the Waikiki, McCully, Ala Moana, Makiki area.

I am buying a car for the first time in Hawaii and I would like to purchase insurance, but I think it depends on the warranty, but how much does it cost per month ？ Also, I would like to know if there are any warranties that I should purchase or that I don't need. Thank you in advance.

For the past year or so, I have had itchy ears ・ and coughing in my ears and nose, mainly while in my bedroom, and I was tested for allergies and found to be allergic to dust mites.

After that,
・ I bought a new mattress and bedding,
・ bought an air purifier
・ increased the frequency of vacuuming to 2 ， 3 per week
・ washed bedding 2 per week

Wash bedding twice a week I have taken measures, but it is still not clear. Sometimes I see small insects on the walls （ I can't tell if they are mites ）. I cannot move in a new house.

If anyone has had any improvement with tick control, can you tell us what you are doing?
Are there any safe extermination items that can be used in the U.S.? （ If not, I will have a Japanese Balsan item sent to you ）.

I wanted to get a moped license and wondered, but the license center doesn't have mopeds available, does it?
It seems that you have to bring your own moped to take the practical test, but do you drag it to the license center? It's too far away and it's hard.
And is the test easy ？?
