Waikiki beach, Honolulu

We saw the hula dance under the Banyan tree at Waikiki beach. The dance was mellow and graceful, however the beach was crowded and there were designer malls lining the beach. I felt like I needed to get away from all that. I spent most of my time at Honolulu around the convention center where the conference took place. Since I was taking time off later, I felt no conflict in being there!
