On my last morning in Waikiki I decided to burn off some mai-taikilojoules by going for a jog through Kapiolani Park, at theDiamond Head end of town. I was too late to see the early-morningtai-chi crowd but I did catch residents walking their dogs beforethe working day. Afterwards, I stretched out on the sand in frontof Kuhio Beach Park and listened to a group of locals - somelooking a little worse for wear - singing along with a loneguitarist. As I thought about how refreshing it was to catch asmall glimpse of everyday Hawaiian life, I also realised that forthe most part the package holiday experience was just what I neededafter a Melbourne winter. Not that I should admit it. Rather, I'lltake a lesson from that bumper sticker and tell my friends to go toSurfers Paradise.
