Barack Obama's Hawaii connection

Most of us know that Barack Obama was born and raised in Hawaii. Turns out he was for the most part an everyday guy living in Honolulu when he was growing up.

Robert Kay is a public relations consultant in Honolulu. He made a website outlining Barack Obama's roots and his local hangouts. The site came to my attention because Mr. Kay contacted me about using some of my pictures on his website! I felt honored to have my pics on his site.

The site is called Obama's neighborhood. Click on the "Gallery" tab and look for photos of Rainbow Drive In, one of the President-Elect's favorite plate-lunch places.

Read my blog about Rainbow Drive In if you're in Honolulu and looking for authentic local food.

Aloha, Mike Bates
