This was on the big island too. It is a very small winery that makes wine out of guava fruit. Nice and sweet, a great, light after dinner wine. We bought 3 bottles of it!!
A visit to the Mauna Loa macadamia nut factory in Hilo. They have over 250,000 macadamia nut trees, yet their nuts are still so expensive. Macadamia nuts are low in cholesterol and have 3 times as much good fat as olive oil. Yeah, I read that :)
Here is a black sand beach in Maui. It is actual sand that was formed from lava millions of years ago. It doesn't get your feet any dirtier than normal sand. I though it would turn them black or something. This beach had a lot of caves you could walk through. It also had jellyfish in the water so they suggest you be careful
A few friends we met on our cruise. We both think the dude looks like Dave Matthews, he didn't seem high though

Glenn ~ stumbled onto your blog by accident. First of all, CONGRATULATIONS on your wedding to Stephanie. May you be blessed with a long and happy marriage. Based on what I have read in your postings, I believe you two will do fine. Your choice for your honeymoon: priceless. You might say I am biased since I grew up in the 50th state but now I live in the Lone Star state. I was a tour escort in Honolulu and enjoyed every bit of it, sharing Hawaiiana with everyone. That might explain why I am now a history teacher.
The reason macadamia nuts are so expensive is because it takes SEVEN years for the nut to mature for us to eat. Hope that helps you out.
Aloha!
