Halloween, Hawaii Style in Waikiki

Halloween was the second night of my stay in Waikiki. Used the day time to explore Diamond Head, a 900 foot crater rising high above Waikiki. Overrun by huge Americans with sweat patches, but for a modest $1 couldn't really say no to the jaunt up to the top. Anyway, with views like this, think it was probably a good decision

From Diamond Head I caught one of the "crazyily" cheap buses that run towards downtown Honolulu and on to Pearl Harbour, past the airport. Studied it at school so was kinda cool to put a place to a whole wealth of random facts I think I can still remember... The place where the movie was set too I imagine...

Still, though, this just doesn't feel like Hawaii. Traffic james galore, took over 2 hours to do a little over 10 miles. Could have ran it in half that time!!

In the evening went out with someone from the hostel for a couple of hours into Waikiki, got some interesting photos with all sorts of things, from bananas to Elvis:

Not sure if these people have quite got the idea of Halloween; that is, to be scary, ofcourse.













A really fun place to spent 31/10. Also, one of the only places I've really seen young people out and about in Waikiki. If I ever come back, think I'll avoid dressing as Jesus - one guy was getting some incredible banter.
