Haleiwa

Today was sort of a wash. It was cloudy and windy, so in the morning we went for a run and then went to watch the big waves at the beach. We were almost extras in the movie they are making about Bethany Hamilton (the surfer that got her arm bitten off by a shark). I say almost, cuz we just showed up on the beach when they were filming and weren't really suppose to be there. Marilyn and I were willing to stay and be part of it, but the guys didn't want to so we left and went to another beach to watch the big waves and have our THIRD fruit bowl at Kava Root. Later we walked through the little town we are staying in and went to the best Thai place for dinner. I love this picture of our little town. This is the authentic Hawaii. This is the place that is very famous for their shaved ice. Had to try it, but the fruit bowls are better.

Our first day here for lunch we got our lunch from this bus. It was sold out of this bus. We got the best steak and shrimp I have ever had.


Here is the rooster that we would like to catch and fry every morning at 5:15 am. I was laying there trying to go back to sleep this morning and counted 8-10 seconds between each crow. I am not kidding........the problem is that I think that they are on the endangered species list because they have chickens and roosters all over this town. We could get arrested for trying to capture them. We even saw a hen and her chicks roosting in the parking lot of the grocery store.
