A walk along the promenade

Well I had one full day in Venice and decided to spend it walking along the promenade. Despite the thick sea fog that sat over the area the streets were still teaming with stall holders, buskers, entertainers, roller bladers, skaters and beach babes! It was a great place to while away the day people watching.

Hawaii

Well once I had escaped the shopping centres and high rises of Waikiki I began to discover the real beauty on the island of Oahu. The remoter parts of the island were stunning. The way of life in the less touristy spots is so simple but amazing. Nobody seems in a rush to do anything and the moral work to live certainly applies here. Hopefully I will make it back in the future to explore some of the other islands. The glimse I got of them from the plane was breathtaking.
