This Honolulu sunrise was our first sighting of land after five days at sea on the MS Noordam. We’d sailed from Sydney originally and spent the first two weeks of our cruise traveling to and from New Zealand and then around the country. After our return to Sydney, we sailed to Honolulu.

This photo was taken on our last night in Honolulu. On the days we took the Hop On-Hop Off tour, we discovered how close our condo was to Ala Moana Park. So, on our last night in Honolulu, we decided to take a walk over to the park. We were amazed at how easy it […]

For our last night in Waikiki, we decided to take a walk to Ala Moana Park from our condo and check out the Waikiki lights. To our surprise, the walk to Ala Moana Park and even Ala Moana Mall, was an easy one. The park is a vast green space on a peninsula that sports […]

It seems strange that not so long ago, this photo of Halema‘uma‘u taken from the visitor center at Hawaii Volcanos National Park was the way it had looked for a very long time. Now, the view at Kilauea summit is very different. This photo comes from the National Park Service website. And just so you know, […]
