Sunday around the Island

Started on H2 through Like Like
Hwy to Kaneohe, skipping the eastern
side.

Past Kaneohe and the "Stink Bridge"(where you had to hold your nose while crossing the stagnant water when we were little), is a stretch of trees
overrun by invasive vines.

Beautiful Kahana Bay

Rough ocean 

One of the famous Kahuku Shrimp
stands.  

A good place to bring
visitors.

Ponds behind the stands.

Penny enjoying a little romp.

A surfing competition was
being held so the NorthShore
was milling with surfers and
tourists.

The Windmills are visible from
Waimea Bay now.

We were able to stop and
see the turtles.

It's a designated viewing area with
signs and boundaries.

The shoreline was hazy with salt
spray today.

Back in Honolulu, we stopped
for some shaved ice at Ailana's on
Kona St. near Ala Moana Mall.

It's great to see what's new on the other side of the Island  once in awhile.  Nowadays you can't drive for very long without coming upon stores and houses.  Very different from when we were young and it was a long trip into the "wilderness" where you might come across Madame Pele!
