This blog began in late 2006 with the planning and preparation for a circumnavigation of the world in my 39-foot sail boat Pachuca. It then covered a successful 5-year circumnavigation that ended in April 2013. The blog now covers life with Pachuca back home in Australia.

Visit to Aquarium
Two days ago Brenda and I took a bike ride along the length of Waikiki beach to the foot of Diamond head. We then doubled back and visited the aquarium. It was the best aquarium that either of us had ever visited, with its superbly designed displays, clear views, and good personal audio guides. We also located the zoo but reserved that for another day.
The top photo is a view of Waikiki Beach looking back toward the Ala Wai Boat Harbor. The bottom photo shows Hawaii's state fish, the so-called "Picasso fish" (Don't ask me to spell out the long Hawaiian name for the fish.) You can get a lot more out of the photos by enlarging them (2 left clicks of the mouse).
