Anniversary Breakfast with Bonzers!

La and I celebrated our 17th Wedding Anniversary last weekend - we went to breakfast at her favorite breakfast place - Cafe Haleiwa.  The Campbell Brothers were present and running around, and they had a collection of bonzers on the rack next to our table.  How nice that we got seated where we could eat great food and admire some really great surfboards!!!

Awesome breakfast burrito!!!

A Day up at Haleiwa and Pupukea

We went up to the North Shore today to hangout and checkout a plant sale (at a spectacular garden - for those pictures checkout my other blog - www.compulsivesucculentsandpottery.blogspot.com). We had breakfast at Cafe Haleiwa. Burned some time at the North Shore Marketplace And after the plant sale/garden tour, we had lunch at a Kono's (pulled pork place - it was good, but my smoked pork is better ;) ) And more of the ubiquitous chicken - these guys are the real rulers of the earth (or at least these islands - such is the destiny of any creature that can/will eat a cockroach). Great day up North!!!

La's Birthday Fun

I took off work for La's Birthday and we had a blast!!! First part was spent up on the North Shore having breakfast (La's favorite meal of the day) at one of her favorite breakfast spots - Cafe Haleiwa. After that we were going to go snorkeling at Shark's Cove, but there was a swell in and the water was a bit too rough - so we visited the turtle basking spot at Laniakea Beach. The second part of the day was spent over in the Kailua area running an errand and grabbing some real malasadas Right across from the Portuguese Bakery was a knitting-crochet-Christmas store. And they had a cool coconut pirate. This place was pretty cool (and not just because they had coconut pirates). The Birthday itself may have ended shortly after this, but the Birthday Weekend continues in the next posts!!!
