We might have been neighbors...I used to tell friends that there were no ‘high-rise’ hotels on Waikiki when I lived there...they couldn’t imagine such a thing.

I was nine to twelve when my Father was stationed there. Get me near the water, ocean or pool, and my Mother could not get me out! I returned there many years later after I had left the Marine Corps to visit my Sister who lived there. The place was so built up I did not recognize it.

I remember when basically the only hotel on the beach was the Royal Hawaiian.
