Day 4 & 5

I will try to make this quick. More food, more music, more shopping for a good ukulele for Mr Guy.

The famous parsley lemonade at Town, a restaurant in Kaimuki:



Led Kaapana on the right, surf and Diamond Head on the left, with surfers in the distance. Next year, Mrs Guy would like to take a surfing lesson and try to be one of those happy surfing specks in the distance during his set:



Yesterday we went to Wahiawa Botanical Gardens, or as my unhappy feet might refer to it, "Wahiawa Mosquito Resort" It was small but lovely, and had me wondering whether I can train philodendron to climb our cedar tree at home.



Nothing is very far away here, so we went from the beauty of this little place in the middle of the island, with its odd combo of beautiful bird sounds and road noise, and in a little more than an hour could get back to the hotel, walk Waikiki beach down to the middle of town, and have a beer in front of us at the Beach Marriott (not actually on the beach, mind you). There we heard Aaron Mahi, George Kuo and Martin Pahinui play. So much good music any day here.
