Hawaii Day 5

Oops, had 3 ahead of 4, fixed that. Here's day 5, hopefully in order. Karen, Trevor and I went to the Macadamia Nut Farm on the drive towards North Shore. It's not far from their place, about a half hour or so. We took the bus tour and it was really fun. Authentic Hawaiian tour guide, dressed in Hawaiian garb with a sense of humor, too. His name was Solomonuala or something like that.
Aww, Mom loves ya!

We got to crack our own Macadamia nuts, but the chickens were quick and took them from you if they got the chance. The sign says not to feed the chickens, guess they can't read.

This guy is a real ham-bone.
Movies and tv shows were filmed here in this farm and surrounding area and water.Fantasy island, Gilligans Island and some I can't remember.
We saw lots of fruit and nut trees. This is Macadamia.
Very gorgeous scenery

The girls got these plant head ring things.
