Woke up to see my neighbors out looking at...
A rainbow
Downtown Hilo from across the bay
Doris looks through "The Teaching of Buddha"
This tree was planted by the Babe almost 70 years ago
The Bambino's banyan tree on Banyan Dr. is doing well
Lili'uokalani Gardens, right near our hotel
It's the largest formal Japanese garden east of the East
One more from Lili'uokalani Gardens
I'm ready for my close-up, Mr. DeMille
We stopped by the Pacific Tsunami Museum
It's in an old bank and the movie is shown in the vault
The docent told us about the Hilo Tsunamis
She had many slides
This one showed Hilo then and now
The bank building where the Pacific Tsunami Museum is
Then a quick stop by the Naha Stone
Some quick lunch at Blanes
Visited Rainbow Falls, where Doris got bitten more
Then the Boiling Pots, where Doris stayed away
They have interesting bus stops
Made a quick visit to the Kaumana Caves
It was cold and dark in there
Our hotel from Coconut Island
Stopped by the Mauna Loa macadamia nut factory
Did the self-guided tour -- oh look, a rainbow
The self-guided tour had "Mac the nutty buddy" hosting
And on the 8th day, God created Sprawl*Mart
And another rainbow over our hotel
Dinner at Cafe Pesto was delicious (but pricey)
