It is a short morning-show segment (Wake Up Today) featuring Alan Akina and two hosts (unnamed Speakers A and B). Alan recommends two free, self-guided family walking tours for spring break — the Waikiki Historical Trail (21 stops from the Outrigger Canoe Club to Kalākaua Park) and "Obama's Neighborhood" (sites from President Obama's childhood, including Punahou and the Baskin-Robbins he once worked at). The hosts respond positively, noting the educational and exercise benefits.

Spring break is here for thousands of island keiki, and for many parents, what do we do now? I
know, Alan Akina has a couple of suggestions.
Good morning, gang. Today is the start of spring break for our kids. Now the challenge is finding things to do with them that will be entertaining, educational, and budget-conscious all at the same time. So I found 2 free and fun self-guided walking tours that you can explore with your keiki. First is the Waikiki Historical Trail. Not only does this walking tour provide you with the history of Waikiki, it also gives you all kinds of exciting fun facts, dates, interesting stories, even legends. The tour will take you to 21 different spots starting out at the Outrigger Canoe Club and on to King's Alley where King David Kalākaua once had a residence back in the 1800s. The trail will end at marker 21 or Kalākaua Park. Go to waikikihistoricaltrail.com to get the details. The next tour is called Obama's Neighborhood. This walking tour will take you on a journey to where the president was born, past the apartment he grew up in, to Punahou Schools where he attended. You can even check out the Baskin-Robbins he once worked at and the courts at Washington Middle School where he developed his love of basketball. For more information, go to obamasneighborhood.com. For Wake Up Today, I'm Alan Akina. See you on Wednesday.
I like that because it incorporates exercise.
That's, uh, so it's a win-win.
Yes.
So you're not only getting a little bit of knowledge, but you're also getting a little exercise in.
That's right.
Liking it.
