Saturday October 29. Goal achieved! Congratulations especially to Jim, Agueda, Brenda, and Paul – they have been training for their latest goal – riding from Davis to Winters and back – about 27 miles. Leo organized the ride. Also on the ride but not pictured: Minerva, Becky, and Steven.
With no specific plan for the day, we decided to go back to a couple of our favorites on the north shore. Hanalei Gourmet was closed – a staff holiday until next Sunday – so we drove to Kilauea and had a very good fish sandwich at Kilauea Market and Cafe. Here are a few views of the area around the timeshare we’ve been in. On one side was a parking area with 2 food trucks – one Mexican, the other Asian fusion – both with good food and more convenient and cheaper than going to a restaurant. On the other side, the pool.
Thank you so much Ade for inviting me on this trip. I had a great time. I wonder what our next adventure will be … oh yeah, we’ve already booked it. Stay tuned.
