Aloha! It has been a glorious day here on Kauai...temps in the low 80's, light trades and overcast skies. It was so nice Jackie and I decided to get the lawnmowers out and tackle the yard. It has only been a week since we last mowed but with the beautiful days and rainy nights the yard has really grown. In the summer we can get by mowing the yard every 2 or 3 weeks but our yard seems to like the slightly cooler days and the extra rain we get in the winter so for the next 4 or 5 months it will need to be mowed every week or 10 days. After we got the yard done and cleaned ourselves up a little we were both pooped so we thought we would splurge a little and eat dinner out so it was off to McDonalds for our usual meal of burgers and fries. Probably not the healthiest meal on the island but there aren't many places two people can eat for less than 7 bucks! After our wonderful meal we decided to swing by the Coconut Marketplace and catch their hula show. They have one every Wednesday. We had a few minutes to kill so we stopped at a little shop and got 2 ice cream cones...just single scoop mind you...$8.64! Next time I will check the price before I order! We took our ice cream over by the stage and found a nice spot to watch the show. The little girls put on a very nice show and they come around afterwards and sell leis for 5 dollars a piece. These leis are handmade and smell really nice so of course we couldn't turn the little keikis down and bought 2. Counting the couple of bucks we put in the donation jar our trip to McDonalds came to almost 30 dollars! Not too bad I guess for an evening out in Hawaii but a little more than the 7 bucks I usually spend!
