Na Ohana Hoaloha - Entertaining as usual

A breakfast date with friends from Nevada at the Kualapu'u Cookhouse was a wonderful and tasty way to start Sunday morning.  Two eggs over easy with ham and abundant home fries, topped off with good coffee was our breakfast special of choice. Always friendly, the owner treated us very well.  A picturesque drive down Hwy 470 back to Kaunakakai gave us expansive views of the ocean and the island of Lanai.  The intermingling of turquoise and deep blue waters showed us the sand-bottom areas clearly.
The afternoon included a ride to Coffees of Hawaii to enjoy the music of Na Ohana Hoaloha.  Regular host, Julia is still away doing cultural work, but the band played on without her engaging wit.  Kumu Hula DJ Pelekai's hula is always perfection and we were treated to a flawless performance.  It was difficult to resist a Mocha Mama from the espresso bar, but the ample breakfast we got at the Cookhouse made us "just say no" - at least this time.
