Report from South Kona

Popped out of the driveway not too early , after some hanging out and a couple of lattes . A cooler , trunks , bag of goggles and the kites tossed in the truck and hody ho off we go up north. Destination Hawi and the north part of the Island , now not having been up there for so many years I forgot how nice it is up around that part of the Island . Hitting the store the cooler was filled with some various drinks , gator aids , mini sodas plus a jar of dill pickles for Chris and a bag of sun chips . Pit stopping at Jamba Juice for a Peach Pleasure and you know Chris goes for the Strawberry Surf rider because its nicely tart , Kyle sticks with the old favorite Gotta Guava . This time we all also had a shot of Wheat Grass juiced right there and served with a wedge of orange , they were shot right down and with the bit of orange they really were fun . It jazzed us up for the ride I can see why people get a shot every day it gives this healthy rush that with the gig juices kept us going all day .

Now under way our first stop on a random whim , was to check out Spencer beach park for possible camping trip in the future , sighting right next to it the new visitors center for the Pu’ukohala Heiau National Historic Site . Cruised into the parking lot to check it out finding a short little movie to watch in the cool little out door theater and perusing the gift shop . I always end up getting a pin or some little thing in these shops , this time a pin and a walking stick emblem , plus a post card was purchased . They are very cool there and we went to check out the Heiau and the smaller one that had suffered damage form the earth quake back a couple years. We have some fun video of the visit to the royal beach and some of the interesting things there . Covering some more territory next as we closed in on Hawi and keeping our eyes open for some kite flying spots we spotted they turn to the Lapakahi Historical park , a 600 year old nearly intact Hawaiian village. The wood and other things of course didn’t last , though the layout , all the house platforms and other sites including burial are still there. It was getting late by this time about 330 and they shut the gate at four , the Aunty that works there was however at the gate already prepaired to lock it up
, we made it but the poor three Japanese girls may have been locked in . lol Now we did some more stuff but that will go in tomorrow and all video can be put in a little movie too.

So untill part 2 ,

Peace and happiness Steve , Mr Jones
