Yesterday I realized I hadn't been to Excelsior in a (long) while, so I thought I'd head over there for a visit. From what I had remembered it was a pretty bustling, up-scale area. It originally started as a Victorian resort town at the end of a streetcar line, from which you could hop onto a streetcar boat (yes, a streetcar boat which you will see later in this photo thread) and ride it to your home inaccessible by land or to Big Island where there was an amusement park. Early on, it had built its reputation as a fun place to escape from the city.
This time around, I could have thought otherwise. Maybe it was just a bad day or something, but the place was dead for such a beautiful Sunday afternoon. I couldn't believe how quiet it was.
