Waikiki is slowly dying and turning into a mall of high end retailers that most of us can't afford anyway. The Hawaiian feeling of it is long gone!

No, the word is "upscale"...just disGUSTING. I heard that the whole International Marketplace was supposed to be made into an "upscale" mall. That place IS old Hawaii. I was sad to see the entire upper level just dead and empty when i was there last year. You could almost see the ghosts of Heyday Waikiki walking around up there. Such a bummer.

Now, Friggin Trump is putting one of his phallic "I'm rich, you're not" monuments of grotesqueness in Waikiki. He needs to be put out of his misery. Him , and the a**hole who bought the Beverly Hilton and is dismantling Trader Vics, should both be put on a boat, and sent out to sea.

Sorry...sore spot for me.

Hey, just read the previous post. Glad to see that the Moai were saved.... :)
