Tuesday, July 3rd we took the historic downtown Honolulu and Capitol 10K walk passing government buildings, Iolani Palace, Chinatown, war memorials and the Aloha Tower on the waterfront. We passed the oldest Catholic Cathedral in the US (built in 1843), one of the most unusual state capitol buildings with an open design, and the only true royal palace in the US, the last official residence of the kings and queens who ruled Hawaii. We've now completed the first of the US Capitol walks, thanks to Uncle Doug and Aunt Jackie! We couldn't have done it without you. The locals are so friendly and very helpful with directions. On our way to dinner, Ange asked a bus driver for directions and she said "hop on, I'll take you there" even though her shift was over and she wouldn't let us pay! Located on the beach at the Colony Surf, Michel's was another of the "Fodor's Choice" restaurants with an open air view of the ocean, another beautiful sunset and excellent French cuisine. The view and food are well worth the visit even though pricey.
