And where is Donna today?  The Northwestern point of the Island of Oahu, called, Kaena Point!  Even though there really isn't a designated road or street to this area, maybe someday there will be!  The first picture is the point looking at the west side of the Island.  The second shows the Northeast part of the Island.

Sorry for the spiral, but I didn't want to take 3 separate photos.  Does it look far to you?  Well, because we doubled the mileage by walking back to the car, it took a blistering 5.56 miles to complete.  I haven't been here since 1975, and  my boyfriend at the time took me there by motorcycle!  Going by foot is a little more challenging!  And yes, I did mention "WE" since my daughter Rochelle accompanied me for this walk, so TWO Hawaiians explored the 'aina! (land)

Here is the starting point, where the asphalt disappears to soil, rock and sand.

This is one lava rock that isn't going to be taken back as a souvenir to the mainland!  HaHa!  I asked my daughter to pose on it so that you can see how big it is by comparison.

I believe that this is the start of a mountain trail that switch-backs to the top!  Please double click the photo to see a larger image and try to identify the trail!

Art can be found way out here!  This pedestal used to be erect!  How it fell down and when is a mystery to me!  What a beautiful girl!

Looking out from the point, the coral extends it's jagged finger outward.  Putting on my reef-walker shoes, I decided to explore the coral outcropping.

Standing by a pool, wondering if I should step in the cool waters, I was surprised by a Monk seal's head popping out of the water and it BARKED at me!  Only 15 feet away, I talked soothingly to the seal.  The seal eventually put his head on the coral and rested.

Totally delighted that the seal didn't swim away, I took more pictures and continued to speak in a sweet voice.

Obviously, my continued talking started to BORE the seal, so this huge YAWN told me it was time to go!

What we have here, is Natural Hawaiian Sea Salt.  Evaporated sea water remnants pocketed the coral.  No, we did not eat it or take some home, even though we love it!

Somebody left a message to all who come to the point, so I rearranged the name and left a message myself!  This day has been astoundingly beautiful and lucky!  I hope that the same happens to you!  ALOHA! (Bye!)
