A walk on the sand ....Hawaii

Any day of the week, in any season is a good day to take a relaxing and healthy walk along Hawaii's many lovely beaches. The fresh sea air, the crystal blue water and the brightness of the sky... and did I mention the warmth of the sun!  Enjoy your day with a walk.....Aloha......

Kapiolani Park Preservation Society,info

Kapiolani Park in Honolulu, Hawaii remains ever so popular...a great park for walking, events, picnics and enjoying life in the islands...The Preservation Society for Kapiolani Park has info available @ www.kapiolanipark.net....
Many years ago on a family vacation to Hawaii we visited the Dole Pineapple Cannery on Oahu. It was a delightful day filled with adventure. Riding the city bus to and from the processing plant, taking a guided tour and best of all sampling the delicious Dole pineapple products. My youngest brother, then a teenager was tired, hungry and very thirsty. At the end of the tour our Hawaiian guide asked if we would please help ourselves to the cool pineapple juice that was chilling in large containers. My brother stood in line and proceeded to drink 23 small cups of juice. " Wow, this is the best juice I've ever tasted!"  A great memory of a time in history when we enjoyed the fun, sun and the sandy beaches of Hawaii. Thanks Dole for being part of my families special memories.  Photo: Dole.com
