Great job Eddy!! That's so cool that most of it is still intact! I never ever would have thought it looked like that!! I cant believe the mugs and all the Tiki carvings are still around! I guess there were boxes of them just sitting around and the inhabitants pulled them out.

You would have thought it would have been completely gutted by the owners/franchise when it was sold off. I know the city wanted it off the property in a hurry so I guess they just got it ready to move and then off it went.

It looks so good that it really could be reopened as a B&B or something else and still retain alot of it's original splendor and decor. I even see paper ad's for Mai Tai's on the wall!! It sure makes you have a little bit of belief that some of these once great Tiki Palaces could possibly be preserved. The Outrigger is even still there!! Just leaning against the wall!

Before closing.

Today.

I would have figured Tikiwahine would have been all over this years ago! Too many trips down to Seattle for Mai Tai's I believe!!

Thanks again Eddy!!!
