Our Big Island Adventure Continues 3 ' 15

Keahou Farmers Market

It's Monday.  We had plans on walking up the hill to the farmers market at the Keahou Shopping Center to get some fresh fruit and veggies to snack on. It's been raining off on on so we decided to drive up the hill instead. Fresh from the farm produce is one of the great joys of our visits to Hawaii, and going to the Farmers Market is  always first on our list of things to do.  We aren't going to let a little thing like rain stop us from this outing.  Hawaiian tropical fruit is ambrosia.  Papaya, pineapple, strawberries and many other fruits taste better to me in Hawaii than any place on I've been on earth.

In addition to going to the  Farmers Markets for the incredibly fresh produce, we enjoy spending an afternoon just watching all the free entertainment .  This year, a local hula schools two hour performance caught our attention.  These talented young girls ( ages 5 - 13) gave one of the most professional performances we have ever seen. We took advantage of the opportunity to create another chapter in the Flat Stanley Big Island adventure for our grandkids.
