Our next stop was in Hawaii. This is the view from our hotel room. | ![]() |
We visited the Botanical garden in Hawaii. This is a bantan tree. They get really massive and can cover an entire block. However, it is hard to get a picture of that. | ![]() |
The limbs of the tree drop rope like roots that dangle down until they reach the ground, and hopefully, get buried. Then they get larger and larger and become, with others, a whole new truck like this one. | ![]() |
This is a flower we saw at the Botanical Garden. | ![]() |

Of course we had to visit the zoo in Hawaii. Doesn't this giraffe look Hawaian to you? The Hawaian zoo was a particularly nice zoo as the cages were not very obtrusive, they were really more like enclosures. | ![]() |
They had free ranging peacocks which we found impressive as we had heard that if you crossed peacocks they can be particularly vindictive. | ![]() |
