Great art exhibition in Hawaii

I have always wanted to go to Hawaii to see the island, enjoy the weather and visit the Honolulu Academy of Arts.

The Honolulu Academy of Arts is an 80-year-old gallery with - believe it or not - some of the finest Japanese prints in the world. This is thanks in large part to the author James Michener, who donated over 5,400 vintage Japanese prints to their permanent collection, some of which can be viewed here.

They currently have a nice exhibit running as a tribute to their founder, Anna Rice Cooke. You can look at four pieces in the exhibit here.

Hmm...I wonder how much is a ticket to Honolulu this time of year... : )
