First thing this morning, we went to the Kona Farmers' Market.
We bought tomatoes and basil from Malamala Farms, shown above. |
|
Rambutan, a type of lichee... we tasted it at the market and bought some for lunch, as well as several other fruits. |
|
We also bought Kona coffee: light and dark roast, from a farm
that's located uphill from where we have been. |
|
100% Kona coffee is quite wonderful. Unfortunately blends are often labeled quite deceptively... you have to read carefully! |
|
By around 9:30 we were heading for Two Step the great snorkel place near the Honaunau National Park.
Left to right in the water: Alice, Evelyn, Miriam, and Len. |
|
You can see the national park from the snorkel beach. |

After snorkeling at the beach, we came back to eat our farmers' market purchases.
|
Tomato and basil salad, an incredibly ripe mango, other fruit, and bread from the artisan bakery. |
Lovely pictures. It looks like you picked up some great goodies at the Farmer's Market.
ReplyDeleteYou're right -- the market is remarkably different! I love the beautiful colors, flowers, veggies and fruits no matter where they are. And it looks like lots of fun ocean play, too!
