Royal Hawaiian Hotel...Flashback Friday

I was looking at these photos of the Royal and realized that
when they re-did it several years ago they really did change
it.
I used to walk all over those grounds...early morning, hot afternoons looking
for cool shade or the magical warm nights.
Been to weddings, concerts (those on the great lawn were special), brunch,
classes and self-trimmed some of their plants to use at funerals.




the biggest change I think is that in the renovation, they 
"de-pinked" it.
There's still a lot of pink but nothing like before...
I think I miss it.


On postcards that show Waikiki from the air...
there she is the "Pink Lady of Waikiki" right in the center.
