I took this photo of Waikiki from the Rainbow Tower Hotel.
(I think,
I'm not sure.) This is just off the park by the US Army Museum off
Kalia Road. The park is beautiful and you can see the Outrigger Reef
Hotel and the Sheraton Waikiki just past the park.
Here's Waikiki from the observation area on top of the Diamond
Head Crater. You can see Kapiolani Park in the foreground. The
Sheraton Waikiki is the large hotel in the middle (on the shore) of
this photograph. Just below the Sheraton Waikiki is the Royal Hawaiian
Hotel and shopping mall (it's the pink structure on the shore). This is the
general area where Rich and I surfed. The park in the first photo above is
located just above (behind) the Sheraton Waikiki in this photo.
Waikiki from the helicopter. You can see the Ala Wai Canal
which
catches the rainwater runoff from the mountains. The band stayed in an apartment
complex along this canal to the very top of the
canal and then it goes towards the ocean. Just at that bend is where they stayed
(towards the center of this photo). You can see the
Sheraton Waikiki and the Royal Hawaiian better in this photo. Our hotel, the
Outrigger Edgewater, is just behind (above) those two.
I took this while we walked along the store fronts on Waikiki.
Rich wanted me to take this because it's so cool for skateboarding.
The hotels, stores, parking garages and restaurants in Waikiki are all
"open" structures. They have breezeways, halls, atriums, etc. all
open to
the streets and other hotels, stores, etc. Basically nothing is closed off.
The photo on the left is of Waikiki Beach at night along
Kalakaua Ave around the Hyatt Regency area. The one on
the right is of the same road at night. There are literally thousands of people
on the streets at night all along Waikiki
Beach. The photo below on the left is another street shot but much farther down
towards Monsarrat Ave and Kapahulu
Ave along Kalakaua Ave on the beach front. You can see the Tiki torches on the
far side of the photo on the bottom
left. I took a close up of some Tiki torches on the beach towards the Hyatt
Regency area just after a hula show that
ended around 8:30 or so.
