Getting There

The Night Club scene on Oahu is beginning to get more interesting in this blog. I meant for it to go in that direction but as always, the information contributors will make any final decisions. The night club scene is still pretty diverse and clearly divided by the young - and - the more experienced dancers. There is much solo dancing among the young whereas the more experienced ones are into partner dancing. A couple good line dances at intermission is just fine for them.

“It's a smile, it's a kiss, it's a sip of wine ... it's summertime!”


The interesting thing about the athleticism and/or the exercise quality of dance — when someone goes into a dance studio on Oahu looking for exercise, if they know anything about dancing, they come in asking about the swing, salsa and the cha-cha-cha. What they don't realize is a properly-done waltz or a properly-done rumba is much more exercise-oriented and physically exhausting than a swing dance and you may enjoy it more. You are using your muscles, but you're using them in a more of drawn-out control method than haphazardly running through a pattern. There's a lot more control involved and perhaps joy.


Fortunately, more people on Oahu realize that living, working and playing on the outskirts is much better than in downtown Honolulu. And most know that the situation in town is going to get worse with the Rail Disaster. The Waianae Coast, the North Shore and the Windward Coast are looking very good. And so are the coasts of all the neighbor islands.

“Wine may be one of the most civilized things in the world and one of the most
natural things that have been brought to the greatest perfection and
it offers a great range for enjoyment and appreciation.”
