I usually look for a spot of green on the GPS in the form of a city park. On a recent shopping trip to the Waikele Outlets, I was pleasantly surprised how beautiful the nearby Waikele Community Park is! We dropped off the shopper and drove just a few minutes. The park is shaped like a giant half circle with golf condos behind trees around it. The parking lot is very large with plenty of shaded parking. This park is awash in amenities: public clean restrooms, a community pool with generous hours (although be prepared for unexpected closings), a recreation office with many classes and activities, and picnic area (by permit). Everything we explored was spotless, no trash here. Uphill from the pool is a large open field perfect to play games, set up volleyball nets or tents. There was a large family gathering happening while we were there, and it looked so relaxing and shady. This is as perfect as an Oahu city park can be!

A huge beautiful park in Mililani Mauka…read more.. Mililani does have beautiful parks and this one is no different. It does have a tiny parking lot though with lots of street parking accessing this location is very easy. My only problem is the shading so if you plan to enjoy this park and need some shade it's probably not for you though it's hard not to get drawn in as the insanely huge grassy area does make you want to just stroll in to chill. There are basketball courts, baseball field and even a cute jungle gym, one that I actually took advantage to stretch and take in all the vitamin D, even though the park sits right beside the freeway being so vast all you really hear are the birds and not much else which makes it a great way to escape and enjoy a beautiful well kept park. Thank you!

My Dad still lives in Pacific Palisades, and my other siblings grew up here. But somehow, I/we had never come to this playground in all those years! And it's not as if I didn't know it was here.... hmmm... Anyway, allllll these years later, I've brought my kids to this playground! We enjoy hunting for and discovering different playgrounds together. My 2 & 4 year old absolutely love this playground! Most are not made for their age, but this one is pretty easy for them to play on. This design also makes it easier for parents as well, so we aren't having to constantly lift and carry the kiddos onto the parts of the playground they want to go. The can easily get to the slides on their own, which makes it great for uninterrupted play, and more relaxation for the parents! Oh, and did I mention there's very pretty views from way up here too?!?

16 Acres Park in Mililani, Oahu, Hawaii…read more.. I didn't know where 16 Acres Park was - even though I was born and raised on the Island of Oahu... lol! Why? Maybe because I hardly go to Mililani; my family doesn't live there; and I don't play soccer or basketball. Haha! I googled 16 Acres Park because I was supposed to meet someone there to pick up a gigantic prize package that I had won on Instagram. I gave them my phone number so they could text me when they arrived at the park after they finished work in Waialua. I used GPS to find Makaunulau Community Park (AKA 16 Acres Park) and parked near the restroom where there was a sign with the park's name. I texted a photo of the restroom to the contact person and they weren't familiar with this area of the park! I stated that there was no parking lot... and I saw a baseball diamond right in front of me and basketball courts far away. Eventually, she found me (I don't even know her name), and she helped me put all of the prizes in my car!

But it will be a hassle to hold it and either walk to the bathroom across the park or simply drive there. I'm not fond of public restrooms so it's best to hold it til I get home. TMI, but let's be honest here. Those would be my plans..but for the kids sake, yikes! Playground is nice but located towards the corner with only a fence to block kiddos from running to the parking lot but definitely will not stop them from running on the road.. It could use some improvements: fenced off playground and a bathroom facility closer to the parking lot side. However, yes obviously parents should keep an eye on the kiddos at all times and not play the darn PoGo game. Nonetheless, my family and I will always choose to frequent this park the most. Very spacious, ample parking, and a great place to teach my son how to ride a bike.

The park is within walking distance to Pearl City Shopping Center as well as residential homes. The only times I have ever step foot onto the park grounds is to watch the teenagers play basketball or to watch the young keikis practice football. It also helps that there is a short stairway access from the parking lot of Hele gas station. I also noticed that the park has a few bleachers for families to sit on while watching a softball or baseball game. I know there is a restroom facility on the premises near the driveway entrance of Pearl City Elementary School. I just have not checked it out. I did take notice that there is one homeless individual that occupies one side of the restroom building. That person minds his own business. 122/200

With the…read morepandemic still unceasingly present, jump into your car, make sure you have something to take photos with and bring a little cutie with you to be in the shots. Yelp Elite Rod is like the Sakura forecaster of Wahiawa. This is the 2 nd year in a row we've come to see the pretty pink fragile blossoms once his photos appear on Yelp. The trees fronting California Avenue by Iliahi School had several cars already parked with avid fans taking photos. We drove on and did come upon some cherry trees further up on the right hand side still on California Avenue but nowhere to park with cars there too then... I remembered Rod's post mentioning a footbridge and Glenn Avenue. Unfamiliar with the area I inputted Glenn Avenue to Maps and our eyes were scanning both sides of the street for a foot bridge. Ta duh!!! On the left hand side we spotted the place. High curbing with no place to park. So... hubs told me to get out of the car with fur bebe who we brought along for the ride. He went to find parking on a side street. Come my little fur bebe let's take a look. There was a family with a tripod taking photos so I moved and waited on the side. When they were done I asked them where they parked. The man said at the botanical gardens. Sure enough it's right across the short foot bridge. Next time. While I was getting some selfies another man came in my direction and told me there's more trees by the church. I asked him do you know what the name of the church is? He thought for a moment and said Nazarene. Perhaps next time we'll check it out but we had to hele on since I had placed our lunch order before we left the house and it was WAY past 25 minutes. Hope the cherry blossoms will last two more weeks so we can bring Doc here to see the beautiful fragile pink blossoms that bloom it seems only around this time every year. Treat yourself to see them yourself but don't wait too long.
