We went on a great hike one afternoon about a week ago in the Koolau mountain range (keep meaning to post the pictures). There were some wonderful views of the our side of the island (the "windward side"); this is the town of Kailua, where we are living, way down below...
another view from that hike - we loved the sharp peaks, and atmospheric clouds.
ummm.... read the sign ,Tony!
and just a few pictures of close to home -- some of our apartment...
and our car - we rented one for the first week, then decided when we returned it, to rent another one for the rest of the month; they had no more compacts, so we got this monster! it is kind of fun, but hard to park in tight spots, including the spot we have in the driveway -- we are always a little afraid for the poor plants. But Hawaii seems to have lots...
there is a farmer's market every Thursday night, that is a great place to go for dinner - aside from fresh produce they also have stalls selling prepared food - some of the best food we have had on our entire trip, actually, is from this market; the moussaka, soul food, mexican, hawaiian.... it's all delicious! We have gone every thursday since we have been in Kailua

this is Kawainui Marsh, in Kailua (yes, everything starts with a "K"; makes it difficult to navigate the streets - they all sound the same to us!)
love, T & C
