Here we are at the Dole Plantation which we visited in the afternoon of our first day. We are ridiing the cheesy train that takes you through the plantation. The plantation is fun. It is like the Tillamook creamery on steroids. We had the pineapple ice cream and bought souvenirs, walked through the beautiful botanical gardens and worked out way through the biggest maze in the world. The locals informed us that they had never been so hot. Evidentally, the Tradewinds neglected to show up the week that we were there. That should explain why our hair was plastered to our heads (except the Bush) and we have that wonderfully shiny characteristic to our skin!
This is the house we rented on Laie Point. The pix is taken from the balcony looking towards PCC and the BYU-Hawaii campus. It was a really nice house. Peggy did a great job of arranging things.
Here we are at Waiamea Falls Park which was a lovely botanical park/gardens with this waterfall at the back of the park. There were lots of gorgeous trees and flowers to enjoy on the 1and1/2 mile walk. You can tell it is still rather early in the day because the hair plastering effect has not yet reached it's prime.
