This morning was the annual Honolulu marathon. It is sponsored by Japan Air Lines, so lots of japanese participants. All very keen and sprightly today, but if memory serves me right, tomorrow will be a different story. Already seen a few who look like walking on blisters........or dead muscles.

Physical exertion, when will people learn!

When travelling around in last week, I came across a large number of WWII period defence structures. Most on coastal locations, but not all. Photos to be posted upon return home next week. One of the most unexpected finds was a series of concrete pill boxes and artillary foundations, in the sand dunes on west side of Oahu. Saw one of them from the road and went treking in the brushes to discover the accompanying ones.

Saw an improvised cattle ramp made from an articulated trailer (? WWII vintage, very old) with the side walls made of lengths of marsden matting. Still looked like the matting was OK too. Got a couple of photos of that as well.
