On Sunday, April 23rd, the Ship docked right downtown in
Honolulu. Because we had both been to
Hawaii many times, we did not take a tour today, but instead walked downtown –
about 20 minutes. It started to rain but
we still enjoyed the walk.
We walked to Ross and Longs Drugstore - along with other stuff, I bought Kona coffee and some black lava salt ($8) made in Hawaii. . After shopping, there is a MacDonalds there, so we had milkshakes and fries in the bench area behind Ross. There used to be a Macy's store here, but now it is Walmart.
On the walk back, it had stopped raining and was
very hot out. We took some pictures on
the way back, but it was so hot, we were glad to get back to the Ship.

Then at 2 pm, we went to the Foster Botanical Gardens - we took a cab there and back ($15 each way) and admission was $5. The Gardens are a collection of trees on 14 acres - the trees are numbered and you are given a map to follow.
Very nice - there is a butterfly garden, statues and a greenhouse. The park closed at 4 - very nice, and the trees cast a nice shade. We recommend this garden in Honolulu.
For dinner, chicken and corn soup, quail with apricot stuffing, snicker cake and a coke.
