Visiting Hawaii in October. I’ve booked my ticket for a tour of the Palace. I know I need to put my bag into a locker but can’t the info where these lockers are exactly. Any help to find these lockers would be appreciated.
A:
Don’t know if there is a locker, but we stored a stroller and several backpacks in their office at the palace (not the barracks where you pick up your ticket) while we went on the tour.
We enjoyed our visit in March. I am now working on scrapbooking our trip pictures. In the throne room there is something stands between the 2 thrones - it is gold and has a round ball at the top. Can you remind me what it is called? Thank you!
A:
It is called a puloulou, or “kapu stick” … the gold sphere on top of the ivory tusk from a narwhal whale between the thrones is said to be a gift from King Kalakaua’s 1883 coronation.

Across the street from the IOLANI Barracks in Richard’s Street is the YWCA Laniakea. Inside is a restaurant called Cafe Julia. There are a multitude of small restaurants one to two blocks West going towards Chinatown. A favorite of mine is Murphy’s Bar and Grill on Merchant street. Very popular and good food.
