Hawaii




Just a short skip and a jump over the ocean is Hawaii. I recent recently visited the vibrant city of Honolulu located on the island of Owahu. 20% of the population is Caucasian and the majority of the population are native Hawaiians as well as Asians from all over the world. It is a melting pot of cultures. 

There are over 100  beaches that surround Honolulu, more than almost any other city in the world.The combination of natural beauty and diverse cultures make it a really terrific city. The soft Island winds and the gentle tropical climate will give you the relaxation you have been craving.


The word Mahalo is used frequently by  the Hawaiians which means thank you  and I respect you.

Rotary Peace Grove at Tilden Park

Image
High atop the hills of Tilden Park sits a serene sanctuary known as the Rotary Peace Grove. This section of the park was donated to Berkeley Rotary in 1955 when they began planting redwood trees. Each year, a different tree is dedicated to a leader in world peace and bronze plaques are displayed with the honorees' names at the base of each tree. The members of the Rotary club prune and  clean up regularly to help preserve the magic and the beauty. The hike to the grove makes a wonderful outing for the entire family.
