Deep shade in front of the Iolani Palace as the sun is on the far side. |
Our friends Kay and Art told us they had never seen the palace decorated like this. |
We admired the shadowy trees around the palace, but forgot to ask their names. There were palms, of course, and banyan trees, and monkeypod trees, but I can't identify them, even after Googling. |
