Walking and Flowers

Tom and I have stepped up our walking (pun intended) to about 5 miles a day so I thought that I would show you some of the sights along our walk.

This is an area that we’ve walked the last couple of days – very scenic and serene.

Cactus Garden
I thought the cactus garden was pretty cool.

And then there are the flowers. For those of you who might not know, I am a flora and fauna enthusiast.  I love to photograph flowers, plants, animals… it makes Tom kind of crazy.

There are flowers everywhere you look – Hawaii has a bounty of hibiscus, plumeria, oleander and, my favorite, bougainvillea. Even the names are poetic.

I think this is a kind of privet. The flowers are delicate and the fragrance is intense but lovely.

Sunset on our second day -breathtaking!

I also love sunsets – natures way of saying Aloha to another day.
