A Little Touring

Aside from boat work we’ve had a chance to do a little touring.  Besides some walks on the local Ko Olina area, we jumped in the van with Orcinius and did a day tour out to the east side of the island out past Honolulu.  While Honolulu is very urban and built up, the east side is still largely dense vegetation and vertical cliffs.  Very dramatic, although not easy to capture on camera since most of the roads don’t really offer easy access to viewing areas.  Anyway, it was a nice day and included a stop at the Pacific War Memorial.  This cemetery and memorial sits atop the hills overlooking Waikiki.  A moving memorial and a beautiful view.

Ann and Lisa do a selfie on the viewing area above the eastern side above Kaneloa.

View from the Memorial down into Honolulu. You can just see Diamond Head peaking above the condos.

A little part of the resort area that the marina is near. You can walk for miles down the beach.

  1. I was going to say the same thing as my mom, that my grandparents are buried there. It’s a beautiful place with wonderful views. Makes me miss them.
