Friday in Hawaii

Today was kind of a light day for us. This morning we started off with Coco Puffs from Liliha Bakery. These are supposed to be some of the best pastries anywhere. Heather had told me that they will change the way you look at the world. They were really good. Margo and I ate a bunch and had a huge sugar rush. I forgot to talk the other day about something we had for breakfast. We had some toast with pineapple jelly on it, I loved it.

Later in the morning Justin took us to Byodo-in Temple. It is a replica of the famous Buddhist temple in Japan. It was really beautiful. For you Lost people, this is where they filmed Jin and Sun at during their wedding.




After the temple, we went to a botanical garden that was pretty cool. We got to see the world's biggest flower which is on top of the world's biggest palm tree which takes 60 years to bloom. After it blooms it dies. See if you can find Margo.


After the garden, Justin took us on a nice drive up a rainforesty mountain that has a great lookout. It was super windy but the views were awesome.


We did not do much the rest of the day. For dinner we went to Side Street Inn which is another well known local place that was featured on Anthony Bordain. It was pretty good but not great.

Keep checking our Picasa web album, we put more pictures on there.
