Giant Golf Balls

I took in dinner at Gordon Biersch one evening in Honolulu. The outdoor seating was nice (until it rained) and I got to watch them drive cars off a Matson freighter docked nearby. Before dinner, a little anole popped up on a nearby rock wall. 



It was super cute, and I like anoles -- left overs from having three as pets as a kid. And for a bit it looked like we were going to have a moment.


But instead, I think he just didn't want me around.



But, when it rained I headed inside. I did catch a nice silhouette shot, though.


After dinner, I snagged a couple of shots of the Matson freighter and a much more interesting ship covered with giant golf balls.


The Pacific Tracker


This ship has had an interesting and diverse life. If you'd like to read more, here's a really good article about this ship's history. And here is the ship's listing on Shipspotting.com.
