We checked out a replica of a Buddhist temple. It was so beautiful and peaceful.
Ringing the gong is supposed to help clear your mind before going into the temple.
This statue is made out of wood then coated in black paint and lastly gold leaf. It was HUGE! This picture doesn't capture the presence this had.
Every detail was perfect. The sand was raked into calming lines and swirls and they even had these cute gargoyle guys.
LOTS of coy fish. So many. And there was a group of them ganging up on another one incessantly and so violently that it was being pushed all the way out of the water. It was mildly disturbing.
Living vicariously through you.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite things to do in Hawaii was to visit the museums. We saw the Sugar Mill museum the first day with Richard, Abby, Tyler and Katie. Allan and I went to every museum we saw after that. One was a Chinese temple that wasn't nearly so big and beautiful.
