Human Carpet - Waikiki

The Duke- father of surfing.

 None of the photos show just how densely the Waikiki Beach front was covered by human flesh - and it is not even high season.  These photos are of the lagoon which was relatively uncrowded.

Awesome Hawaiian signs

Gotta love the martini glass on this one....

The Big Island

The weather prevented us from flying by helicopter over the volcano but we did get to swim with the manta rays.

 Pretty flower

 Catherine brought along Scottish shortbreads for us to have with cups of tea.

Fire!

The fire alarms went off last night.  Not sure whether it was a drill or not.  The fire stairs still had an burnt electrical smell today.

It reminded me of my days at St Anns...
