The View From Tantalus (Puu Ualakaa Park Look Out)

When our guests were here last week, we took them up to Tantalus (mountain lookout) to get a view of Diamond Head, Manoa (University of Hawaii campus), Waikiki, Honolulu and Waianae.


It was a sunny, clear day!


It seemed as though you could actually see the curvature of the Earth on the horizon. You can see Honolulu straight ahead.


The Waianae mountain range is seen in the distance.

  11. So the song goes, " On a clear day, you can see forever, and ever, and ever".
    And so it was.

  12. Amazing view! You're so lucky to live there. However, I heard about a tsunami nearby on the news. Watch your back! Be safe.

    Love your new heading picture, BTW.
