North Shore via the Windward Kam highway
So here, after going over the LIKELIKE hwy, I cross onto the Kam highway and head north.
Past HEEIA, HUULA, and KAAWA, I'm the farthest I have gone.
I pass the Macademia Nut farm, mmmm. covered with Kona coffee and dark chocolate.
I drink a free cup a joe and urinate like a race horse...
my butt is sore, I think I will have to check my prostate levels after all the pressure it has been put through...
Pass the Polynesian Cultural Center, each time I think to go, I flip flop from wanting to go to not wanting to go there....someday.
I pass shrimp ponds and shrimp trucks selling fresh shrimp plates.....mmm good, garlic butter shrimp, huli huli hot schrimp, coconut deep fried love schrimp....I urinate in a most disgusting porta potty...I imagine all sorts of creatures in their and freak myself out a bit, I imagine having to do Number 2 in this place and shudder at myself for thinking such fearful thoughts.
Food is overpriced 12 plate, and the schrimp are living next door, so it can't be any fresher or cheaper, but alas.....you cannot win here in the price game....so i eat my 10 prawns, two scoops a sprinkling of boring lettuce loaded with dressing....and I'm on my way....a huge crowd of tourists from buses start rolling up, I'm so glad I beat them by a few minutes...
my helmet crashing off of my scooter, attracting unwanted attention...I wash my hands in these sorta funny ready made sinks under a gianty canopy that houses picnic tables at the Fumi schrimp stand.
as I stated before the road is curvy and travels along the coast, the water is beautiful as I venture further north the mountains and valleys to the L of me become more and more bright lush green colors a sign of significant rainfall..
I end up at a small beach area and walk along into the water....and can never get all the sand off my feet for the next 4 hours :(
I take pics of my footprints cuz it looks like i'm the only one who ever traveled, of course people are near me, but I like to play these-I'm tom hanks in castaway where's Wilson the volleyball kinda games in my head when I'm alone...
