Getting ready to see the Island and new adventure. We plan to go for a snorkeling and surfing




On the way we were able to buy cherimoya, bananas, coconuts and some other fruits at the roadside fruit stand

I have more pictures to download. I am just starting to show our "adventure".

On the way I took some of the native plants that are growing perhaps wild.

Ante: The food will come after the snorkeling. And the beer much later only on the way back.
I'll stop for now. Sorry.

Thanks Mitchell. I agree. Everytime we go there I stuff myself with fruits that are not available in the mainland.
Yes, Hawaii is very intoxicating. Even my wife who is so afraid of the water was convinced to take snorkeling in 30 feet of water.

Those black dots at center of picture were school of fish that came up for food.




everybody is enjoying the water. While snorkling we got to see giant tortuise, Moray ells and dolphins.




Ahhhh! FOOD! I am soo hungry.

I have more pictures on surfing, cruising around the island and some night tour on the stores. But that would be another entry and another story . So good bye for now guys and thank you for looking and for your nice comments.
Benny
