     Joan, thought I would check out a page on Honolulu since planning to go back next year. You looked good in that bathing suit from "53". We will be staying on Kauai most of our time.

     Nice contrast of old vs. new. Waikiki has sure enough built up over the years.

     I love the B/W photos on your page. I hope you enjoyed your return trip to the Islands!
