​FIFTH AVENUE WITH PALM TREES AND ABC's

...Continued from previous post: 
   View of Honolulu from one of our hotel rooms.

     On Tuesday most of our group went off for an afternoon of banana-boating, a water sport in which the participants are seated on a long, banana-esque floatie attached by rope to a motor boat which whisks it and its passengers around in the ocean.

      Theresa and I, however, stayed behind and walked into downtown Waikiki,

...to Kalakaua Avenue, 

...which one might mistake for Fifth Avenue, ​

...if not for all the palm trees,

...the mountains off in the distance on one side,

...and the beach on the other.

     However, among the boutiques of the haute couturiers could be found the ABC Stores.

        The ABC Store is a Honolulu-based convenience chain that sells sundries, souvenirs, Hawaiian clothes, snacks, necessities, 

...lunch,

...dinner,

...and just about anything else one might find oneself in need of.
      One can scarcely walk a block without coming upon an ABC store, nor does one have to wonder where the closest ABC store is; wherever one is in Honolulu, one is not far from an ABC store, one need only keep walking in any direction.

     It's said that ABC stands for "All Blocks Covered." That's accurate.
