Playing Tourist in Waikiki








We enjoyed an overnighter in Waikiki "playing tourist" ... we stayed at the Sheraton Waikiki hotel thanks to my cousin who got us a "family rate". This was perfect timing so that we could go to Duke's (the legendary surfer) Restaurant to enjoy listening to local Hawaiian music with the well known band "Kapena". The drummer is a Pac Rim student whom Guy mentors and the lead singer knows my dad from the good old days on the beach. The weather was nice on the beach and it was relaxing to say the least.
