This morning we took TheBus to Foster Gardens, which was a lovely respite from the hustle and bustle of the city of Honolulu. The big trees at the garden are spectacular, and there are lots of orchids there too. We walked from the gardens to Chinatown and got some lunch and ball tea, then caught the bus out to Sea Life Park, which is a shadow of it’s former self and would have been much more fun if we’d been prepared to get wet and interact with the dolphins and rays. TheBus ride to Sea Life Park was interesting and very long. A lot of school kids use TheBus to get home from school, and they were a rowdy, spoiled pack of half-feral miscreants. At one point the bus driver had to yell at them all to stop them pushing and shoving each other outside the bus itself (which they were doing as we pulled into one stop, very dangerous).
The ride back to Waikiki’s International Marketplace was a lot less interesting, thank goodness. We are hitting Sansei Sushi again tonight and getting ready to fly tomorrow to San Francisco.
