Paradise Park Community Foundation

a couple years ago, when paradise park closed (parrot side) i heard they freed the parrots from the zoo. it was only obvious because there were flocks of those green parrots picking the berrys from the banyan tree and flying around squaking. we look out the window, wow! wtf?! where’d they come from? dang. there were hundreds/​maybe thousands, and when you try to feed them, unlike the pidgens, they don’t eat out your hand. point of fact, they ain’t there no more. not sure of they’re migration patterns or what happenned. good luck parrots. come back myna birds. lol.

So this park recently closed to the public in 1994. However that never stopped us as irresponsible kids from getting in and when I was last in Hawai’i. However it should be harder now since apparently «Lost» took over the area and began filming there.
Anyways if you get to the back entrance where there is a residential area you will come upon the first of the seven bridges. The myth goes something like this:
the area is haunted, there is a bamboo forest and you will never find the seventh bridge. Also when my friends got separated (we did this at night by the way… i know super smart) two of them came upon a shack. Not something I would want to run into. It wreaks of some horror film movie plot. Anyways I got too chicken and bounced back to the car with another of the girls while the rest of the idiots braved the forest and possibility of wild boars… no thank you.
nevertheless the exhilaration was good enough for me. You must do this if the gate is still open in the back entrance. At night time it’s SUPER scary and kinda dangerous so I recommend the day time.
