From July 27th-30th, our final leg of the journey took place in Honolulu, Hawaii. Due to my husband's business conference, we stayed at the Hawaiian Village Resort. This was not a typical hotel. It caters to the wealthy, but Hawaii has been hit hard by the recession and even big resorts were giving incentives to tourists to stay there. The entire village is filled with bronze sculptures, wood relief carvings, tapestries, fountains, etc. They even had live flamingos and South African penguins in their lagoons. The majority of sculptures are by Kim Duffet and the structure of one of the Hotel Towers is the largest mural called the Rainbow Mural by Millard Sheets. Here are just a few examples of what I saw while visiting there.
