Also known as "Lizard Rock." There is a story behind this but I won't divulge into it. You can look this up online. I finally got a chance to check this place out. A very nice scenery with a small parking lot. Also folks, try to park in a fashion where others can park and enjoy the view as well. There was a car that literally, in a sense, double parked (took up lots of space) forcing me to nearly park near an edge. Please be courteous to others. We want to enjoy the view and grab memories as well.

Sunset Beach

As you enter the beach, to your right is the famous 100 year old tree that everybody sits and takes a pic with despite a sign telling you to not sit on it. Yeah, I only touched it at best. A very nice beach. I think I will come back and enjoy a day here sometime later possibly this year.



Shark's Cove (Pupukea)

 


 











A famous tidepool(s) for North shore residents and others alike. Pick a spot. I think I will take a dip sometime at this place later this year as well.

Laniakea Beach (Turtle beach)

 


 


Surfers, if you can see them.












Try guess what this beach is famous for? You actually do see turtles swimming all over this area; they are literally surfing the waves. One turtle decided to stay and snack on the Algae allowing people to take pictures of him/her. 

Haleiwa Alii Beach


 


 

















This beach is in Haleiwa town. Their is a small pier located next to here. Another nice beach for all families to relax and let loose.


That is that. Thank you for checking this page out. I enjoyed the locations I went to which allowed me to practice my photography. See you later folks.

Hawaii Foodiecon 2025 and Yakiniku Like.

  Yakiniku Like Foodiecon was a enjoyable experience. Quite a bit of food vendors. It can be fairly expensive depending on the stuff you buy. Got to try Yakiniku Like over here in HNL. Brings me back to Sapporo which was actually only two months ago. Once again, good if you want a quick meal but if you hoping to be fulfilled, you may want to check into a Yakiniku buffet instead. 

Sapporo, Japan Feb 2025 (Pic Heavy)

  Early February trip to Japan. Feb 2 (Hawaii time) Flight from HNL to New Chitose  Food from ANA airlines. Was not a direct flight. One layover. Then a one hr train ride to Sapporo from New Chitose Airport. Landed around 1030PM at night.  (Each day categories pics start from bottom to top, sorry didn't feel like fixing this).  Feb 3 ( Sapporo) (Will be Japan dates from this moment forward) The famous Nikka sign and pretty much a midnight snack before bed. According to google, the restaurant is called Asahi Ga Nobori Susukino and its right across the Nikka sign and has a animatronic ramen display. It's a good restaurant that features a staple of Sapporo: Miso. One of the few places that is open to a much later time. I think 3AM?  Feb 4  Nijo Market  Yup. Hawaii. Nijo Market. Brunch pretty much at Ohiso . Gets packed quick so find a spot to catch your grub quickly. Lots of similar restaurants around here like Ohiso but like I sai...

Another day in Hawaii-Nei 8/11/20 Murals in Oahu.

Well, since hikes and most of the beach (non-swimming) are out of the question. I tried to go the non-Kaka'ako areas to take pics of murals though I ended up going to Kaka'ako for a little bit to scope out my next mural adventure. Without haste, lets get started. Before I start, copyright and credit are given to the respective owners of the murals/paintings. Thank you for allowing us to enjoy your pieces of art. I'll also do my best to address the locations as best as possible for those interested. Mural #1     Location:   939 Ke’eaumoku St, Honolulu, HI 96814.  Its the strip club 939 across Dominoes Pizza . This one caught my eye simply because I drive around this area frequently and I saw it the other day, so I decided to inspect it up closer. *Update Feb 2021* Apparently, the girl's chest in the painting is whited out now if you decide to sojourn into this area. What a way to ruin some art, really. Kinda ironic when it's still a stripclub.  ...
