Day two: Touring the NTBG

June 19, 2012

Hey all!

Today we toured the National Tropical Botanical Garden, starting off with the research center and then moving out into the gardens. There are an immense amount of invasive plant species across the island and it is even so extreme that the invasive plants can be found within the botanical garden. The area was so beautiful; although the fact that most of it was exotic and invasive kinda ruined the aesthetic beauty. We got to go to the NTBG gift shop, where I got a T-shirt, and see the beach, where I saw turtles. We ended the day watching the two graduate students from University of Hawaii test fly a kite and then the Gatewing X100 (or rather their less expensive version). Overall it was a great day!

Here’s some pictures:
