7 miles is a long way in Honolulu. The neighborhoods that we're familiar with are Makiki, Manoa, Kaimuki, Waikiki, Tantalus, Kohala, Down Town, China Town, Kalihi and Ala Moana. Places outside are not Honolulu....they're Aiea, Pearl City and Ewa.

Check the ZIP Codes for the areas.

I drove cab nights while attending the UH. I loved long fares....until I learned the meaning of 'dead head'.

When the birth announcement first appeared I went to Google maps and placed the 6085 address in then typed for instructions on how to get to the University. As more addresses were given I noticed how far out that address was from anywhere else and it struck me as odd until I found out that Madelyn Dunham worked at the escrow dept of Bank of Hawaii and would be able to provide a safe address. Then reading about the racism in Hawaii where ads for rentals specified “No Haole” and “No Hapa” need apply it really struck me that the odds of renting a large house were slim for a Haole with a Hapa baby, especially an unmarried student!
