On Saturday morning we headed to the Costco at Sam’s request. As a consolation prize we got to go to the beach across the street.
After the beach we headed back to Hilo the way we’d come, this time stopping at the Mauna Kea visitor’s center for some clear views.
On the plane we flew past the mountaintop.
After checking into our AirBnB in Waikiki we took the #19 bus to the honolulu pow wow art festival.
It was a little bit like the art walk in Los Angeles, but smaller and more dense. The food was incredible, though. We ordered some mix plates at All Kine Grindz and I had the best crab cakes I can remember.
While waiting for our dinner to be cooked I noticed that the mural across the street looked like a James Jean piece. It turns out I was right – it was James’ first mural ever and done for this very event.
The weird thing was that it was being hidden behind a trash dumpster.
Our BnB was on the 12th floor of what used to be a condominium but was now sectioned out into vacation rentals. We were very close to the Hyatt across the street from Waikiki beach.
