...city's most endearing attractions cost nothing at all. Take an early-morning hike up Diamond Head, for example, the iconic volcanic peak east of town. Or catch the free Kodak Hula Show at Kapiolani Park, a fun 63-year-old institution recently saved from extinction by the charitable Hogan Family Foundation.

And then that Parade of Icons: wacky, wacky, wacky! On floats, they had Greg Norman hitting golf balls into the crowd, Paul Hogan whip- cracking a bunch of prawns - a school of prawns?
