Well worth the effort, a very old school village hosting a huge range of galleries, eateries and shops. Not to mention the largest banyan tree in the USA, it covers an acre and has 16 stumps.
We had a top time and indulged in some Hawaiian shaved ice ( basically the very best slushie you can imagine) & stumbled upon a restaurant owned by Mick Fleetwood and run by a chef off Hells kitchen, the food and drinks were brilliant. Mel being a huge fan was very much in her zone. They had a great organic German beer called Pinkus that has stayed true to a receipe from 1832, so I was catered for as well.
Unfortunately our volcano bike ride has been impacted by the the us gov shutdown, so we will just have to make do here. Will be tough.
Wow sounds fabulous, you both looked so relaxed. What a bonus it would have been if you were to see Mick Fleetwood, pity about the volcano though.
ReplyDeleteWell enjoy while you can as it will soon come to an end,cant believe how quick it has gone, you have managed to fit a lot into the time,some nice memories I bet xxx
