Aloha Stadium Swap Meet and Waikiki Beach

Posted on January 16, 2013October 25, 2021

Saturday and Sunday there’s a flea market at Aloha Stadium. We chose to visit Saturday. It’s a great place to buy souvenirs to bring home. As you walk around the stadium there’s a continual repeat of booths selling bags, jewelery, board shorts and bikinis, but scattered amongst the repeats are a few gems. I found…

Oahu Day 1

Posted on January 11, 2013October 25, 2021

It snowed 4 inches today in Logan and the wind is bad enough that the Salt Lake Airport is closed. Meanwhile, it’s mid 70s on Oahu. Hate me. I’m going to hate me when we have to go back. I’m not sure why I don’t live here. We visited the Dole Plantation. You can purchase…
