Wahiawa Botanical Garden

Went to the Wahiawa Botanical Garden today it is 27 acre forested ravine on a 1000 ft plateau that is located in the center of O'ahu...The plant collection included native Hawaiian plants, palms, aroids, heliconias, gingers, tree ferns, and epiphyets....These are just a few pictures of the Banyon trees...

Road Closed

A rockslide that happend early this morning (4/07/07) closed a section of kamehameha Hwy. just past Waimea Bay or just before Waimea depending on which direction you are coming from...This is not the first time nor will it be the last time that something like this will happen...The rockslide took out a safety wall that was installed after the last rockslide.. The road is expected to be reopened sunday night...But the really bad news is that there is a 15-25 Ft (the face of the wave) swell that is hitting the north shore tomorrow and if you want to go and surf past Waimea then you are going to have to drive the other way around the island which will probably take you about 2 hours....stay tune for any changes...

And are famous for their breaching abilitys (refer to the photo above)....They spend the summer months feeding in polar waters before migrating to warmer waters like hawaii to breed in the winter......
