Today we headed to Pearl Harbor and the USS Arizona Memorial, we just breezed by and hung out there for a little and it was off to the Coliseum where the great swap-meet takes place. The swap-meet is held on saturday, sundays and wednesdays. It forms a ring around the outside of the stadium and theres a whole lotta stuff being sold. At least it's not junk. It's a gangload of stalls selling such wares as: 8 tshirts for 20$, 200$ ukuleles, macadamian nuts, lotions, junk toys, cheesy car stereos / subwoofers, and whole coconuts, pineapples and other goodie fruits. I bought a boonie hat in a funky digital camo, and a pound of macadamian nuts, i shoulda got the garlic flavored ones. Fluffielady got a few of those turtle shaped jewelry.
Hanging on the trail to the Manoa Falls
After walking the stadium ring, went towards the university of Hawaii and into the Manoa Falls. 2 years ago, it was empty, and nobody was around. Now theres 5$ parking and someone watching the lot with free mosquito spray. It was a bit humid and warm but the hike wasn't wet and wild like 2 years ago. Also the trail is now a bit more taken care of. I call it too commercialized. Anyway, the 4 of us made it to the top and the falls was more like a trickle. Just like at home, there wasn't much rainfall as well at Hawaii in the winter and spring.
Manoa Falls, it wasn't as flowing as it was 2 years ago.
After sweating it up, went back to the hotel and returned the rental car early. Now where to go for dindins.
