more pictures, Honolulu







Well, this is NOT the picture I selected, but it is flowers in Honolulu. The other interesting thing about Hawaii is that alot of the people resent the way their country was "granted " statehood. They were happy as their own independent nation, with a King and Queen. Some are calling for sovereignty even now. This is all news to me, maybe I should have payed more attention in history class! Now back to try to get another picture posted. Thank y'all for being patient with me. .....There we are at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel for a Mai Tai, (that cost about $14, so that was also supper)

  2. You should have gone to the Sheraton at Kailua Kona--Mai Tais are $7 at happy hour!
