Friday Fotos on the road to North Shore Oahu

July 10, 2015 By Terry

While on Oahu this year, we had one day with a car. That day was dedicated to a trip to the North Shore and the little town of Haleʻiwa. The little town of Haleʻiwa turned into a real surprise. We found a very upscale restaurant where we could get gluten-free, then just around the corner, found a pizza shop where they had gluten-free pizza…that was really, really good.

Unfortunately, I missed a turn on the way back to Honolulu and so our trip back turned into a circuitous route across the island, then up over the Pali Highway to return. Ah well, itʻs beautiful country, as youʻll see.

By the way, I’m always on the lookout for good Hawaii photos. If you have some you’d like to share, let me know and we’ll talk about featuring your shots on Friday Fotos!

Hint: you can manually advance through the slides by placing your mouse over the slideshow and clicking the pause button, then use the forward/back buttons to navigate.

Out of the rain and into Haleʻiwa!
Surf shops, restaurants, T-shirts…what more?
Barracks…hmmm…cars…lots of cars…
From this stop, the ocean is breathtaking…
The mountains are majestic…
All from one roadside stop…
I spied a waterfall up there, but not now…
In all directions, itʻs beautiful…

About Terry

I started out as a skip tracer. Just in case you don’t know, that’s the guy who finds the people who don’t want to be found. It was the little things—getting paid to lie—that made skip tracing the fun part of the job.

Those years of chasing deadbeats taught me many valuable life lessons, such as liars come from all walks of life, and always keep your car in the garage.

      And a beautiful island it is, Kay. That little missed turn I mentioned in the post put us on H3 with no offramps. At first, I thought, “What a bummer.” Then, it became a delightful sightseeing tour!
