The Georgia Aquarium has done an amazing job immersing you into the depths of the ocean and showing off its wonderful creatures. Their Ocean Voyager Exhibit, built by The Home Depot, is “one of the largest aquatic exhibits in the world and home to four Whale Sharks”. Seeing those Whale Sharks up close is worth the price of admission alone. Also, the walkway through the middle of the tank and its larger windows totally make you feel like you’re in another planet.

Pit stops in Hawaii aka paradise. (Part 3)

Ocean breeze blowing with Diamond Head Mountain in the background.

          On the last day of my trip and my last day in Hawaii, Tony's roommates were nice enough to take me around to check out some of the island and see a stunning sunset.

Extreme boogie boarder. 

My Hawaiian tour guilds. 

       One of the cool place they took me to was the lava tube, which is a tunnel that was crated by flowing lava long ago and now you can walk through it.  From this location you can clearly see how the island was crated by volcanic activity.  Just by looking at the landscape and the rock walls you can imagine how and where the lava was flowing and then harden.  

       The last place they took me to before my flight that night, was the China Wall to see the sunset right behind Diamond Head Mountain.  The color of the sky, the refection of the sun on the water, the cool breeze; everything was just so perfect.  I guess this is way Hawaii is called paradise.

Waikiki Beach, Oahu, Hawaii.

         After being able to take a bus to Pearl Harbor on my own, I felt confident that I cold travel in Oahu on my own.  So I went to check out the very touristy Waikiki Beach; where I played chess with some old men by the water for a few hours and was able to see one of the sunsets Hawaii is famous for.  This is one of the best parts about traveling by your self; you don't have to worry if another person want to do the same thing you wants to do or if they are getting board doing what you wanted.  You're on your own time.

Diamond Head.

          I had heard so much about Jack in the box, so when I seen it in Hawaii I had to try it.  Other than the curly fries and the two tacos for a dollar, it wasn't as good as it's mad out to be.
