Double left click to enlarge picturesI decided to go to the park this afternoon for a little sun and surf. On the way, I joined in with some native Hawaiians for a little touch football (top left) and took these pictures. The park, Ala Moana Park, is a city-owned facility that is very well maintained and serves many divergent functions. It is "home" to a significant homeless population (bottom left) though a bill has been proposed in this legislative session to appropriate $150 million or a new homeless center, it is a place to camp out for families looking for a weekend in the open-air, it is a great place for locals to picnic and it provides consistently good swimming, sunning and snorkeling. These pictures are typical of how the park looks and is used on any given day. It is just across the street from the Nauru Tower (top right).
