A couple more shots of the penny pressing action in Hawaii ! In both of these pictures I was not embarrased at all to be pressing because my audience was entirely composed of Japanese tourists who did not speak English.

I finally made it back to Hawaii to finish the collecting I started 6 years ago. This time I made the rounds on Oahu. The machines in Waikiki were fairly easy as our hotel was mostly within walking distance. A couple of the presses were gone due to construction and one was missing completely. Among the highlights of the trip were Pearl Harbor, air museum, the Dole plantation, and the Polynesian cultural center (which also had a broken machine). I also searched the inside of the new Disney resort but found no machines much to my surprise. I managed to bag a mere 70 pennies in total, falling short of my expectations, but leaving just enough to warrant another trip back. |
