Mac Nut Farm...Finally!

So, we're trying to complete our "Things to do in Hawaii Before we Leave" list.  It has become a never ending list since there is just way TOOOOOO much to do with too little time and babysitters...oh well!  I've checked much of the list off by myself and with Darby, being that Tone has been gone almost half of the time we've "lived" here.  That said, time is precious when he's available to come along for an adventure or two. 

Sunday's adventure was the short and sweet tour at the Macadamia Nut Farm...the sight of many Hollywood scenes ranging from Lost to 50 First Dates and Along Came Polly to Gilligan's Island.  Hollywood loves the scenery and the privacy that comes with privately owned land...

Darby had a splendid time learning about the state of her birth!  Actually, I'm thinking her favorite part was watching all of the chickens come out of nowhere when the coconut "cracked". 

Our Tour Guide....Haleakamakelapualyapunakakey.....or something like that.

OOhhhhhhh....Making Fire!

Darby got scared of the loud music and fire so daddy had to hold her.

Cracking that Coconut Open.  Your kitchen knife won't work!

Drinking the coconut "juice".  The greener the coconut before cracking the sweeter the juice.  The browner the coconut before cracking the more meat!!!  The meat is what turns into coconut milk. 

Darby likin' the coconut milk/meat. 

Darby and I got some headbands made "fresh."  Can't really see hers.  Here we are in front of the Koolau Mt. Range...looks Jurassic Park-esc...that's cause it is!!!

Sugar Pineapple farm.

So focused on the show...our little Hawaiian stinker!

How did we not even get a family shot?  What was I thinking...

Next time...

the end.
