Mornings in the Park
Mornings in Fort DeRussy Park are my favorite part of the day. Fort DeRussy was an actual fort to which there is an on-site museum dedicated and the fort and park are still maintained by the Army. It is next door to the Waikiki Shores Apartments where we stay and is bordered on one side by Waikiki Beach. It is the site of many a family picnic, early morning runners, skateboarders, racketball and volleyball games, and community events. Glenn has mapped out his walking route that he completes 5 or 6 times. I usually join him for 1 or 2 of his laps and spend the rest of the time taking pictures and/or sipping a Starbuck's Tall, Cinnamon Dolce, Non-fat, No-whip Mocha. There are lots of things going on in the park in the morning. Here are a few scenes.

That old lineman in the bottom picture is famous for scattering the pigeons, doves, cardinals and many other birds along the route. As you might expect, the pigeons are the least likely to panic at the sight and sounds of this monster, clapping his hands as rapidly and loudly as possible, moving near the speed of flight!
All true except moving at near the speed of light.
