Honolulu

Our quick 3 days in Waikiki has been fun but not our usual.  We went to Pearl Harbor the first day which was very moving.  They left the USS Arizona in the water where it was blown up and built the memorial over the top of what was left of the ship.  You could see it under water and a few parts above water.  Second day we hiked up to the top of the Diamond Head Crater.  The pictures are from that hike.  You can see Waikiki in one direction and the beautiful wild shoreline in the other.  Today we went to a sales pitch for Marriott Resorts.  It turned out well as there was no pressure at all and we had a fun afternoon snorkeling and eating and drinking up the $75 credit they gave us for going.  It was a beautiful place but not as interesting as Puerto Morelos.

  1. How was the snorkeling, Mom. Different from Mexico?

  2. Lots of fish that were different than Mexican fish but the clarity was not very good while we were there. Also no coral, only lava rocks.
