After a five hour flight we arrived at the Honolulu airport around ten at night. This is the airport as you are leaving as we were making our way to the shuttle. We were surprised to see Sujin and Joe with leis to greet us. We then made it to the car rental place and the adventures began. There is no way you can take enough photoes to show how nice it is (we tried with over 600 pictures). Second, there is no way you could post them all; so I will try to share a few. Hope not to bore you, and then you will have to check them all out on your visit.
One of the first falls we hiked into
The trees and shrubs were very different and sometimes hard to believe.
Top picture is the Arizone Memorial at Pearl Harbor. Below is the outline of the ship under the water. It was very interesting to see and to feel of the reverence and respect that was in the area for the thousands that lost their lives that Sunday morning.
Part of the coastline at Wikikia beach.
Some more of the trees: the branches grow out from the trunk then from the limbs they would send out vines that would drop to the ground to take root and help support the tree through storms.
Sunset from Wikikia beach; it's another town that makes you think they never sleep. The water is very warm and so is the air, so you see people out walking on the beach and sidewalks at all times of the day or night.
