Dinner at the Shipman House

For dinner our group got to tour and dine at the Shipman House, the last remaining Victorian mansion in Hawaii. The house was really quite amazing in the people that had visited it. These folks included the Queen of Hawaii and Jack London. We had a great dinner and plenty of time afterwards to discuss Australian and American politics. It is quite interesting to hear about their issues and then also their thoughts on American issues. Below is a picture of the group of 16 Fulbright-Hays teachers, along with our two Australian Fulbright representatives.

Lexi: There was a queen, but she was overthrown by people acting w/o knowledge of the US Government.

No shoes because it is an old house with soft wood floors.
