My true love is traveling, preferably on a road trip with map in hand, but when I'm not there, I'm here, sharing the beauty of our islands through images and words.

Forgot to show the #wisteria I saw in #Tachikawa. Believe it or not, I've only seen these in pictures. So pretty! .

One last scene from #Tachikawa. This was the cutest! .

In #Tachikawa you'll find pockets of #nature everywhere---in planters along sidewalks, potted #flowers and greenery at shop entrances, even overgrowth in tiny home lots. This one was taken in #SuwaPark. .

#Japan has a strong #bikeculture and there are multiple bike lots in neighborhoods, mainly located near train stations. I'm back home, but have a few more images of #Tachikawa I'd like to share in the next few posts.

I'm fascinated by the culture of solo dining culture in #Japan that I especially noticed on this trip. It's alright to eat alone, but here, it's REALLY okay to eat alone. In the U.S. there can be a stigma to solo dining, but Japan (and probably other countries) go out of their way to make singles feel comfortable.

I always appreciate and love visiting #Tachikawa #Tokyo. In turn, it makes me all the more thankful for home---quiet, night skies filled with stars, and less people, cars and congestion.

Glorious #green. Living in #Hawaii has its perks even if we've had rain and gray clouds these past few weeks. #chill .

Found this area on the North Shore a couple of weeks ago. Lived here all my life and never even knew about it...in my own backyard! 😜

This was going to be the morning I woke up in the dark to drive to a scenic spot to capture the #sunrise. It was a no go. But I did wake up early enough to #photograph this. Happy Saturday all!

Took a quick drive to the #NorthShore for a bit of a break for #muchneeded #solitude and #quiet.
