Life here in Hilo is extraordinary. We go on adventures and see or try something new almost every day. M. is soon to start Pharmacy School so our time to explore together is lessening.
Recently we uncovered a beautiful new spot called Onomea Bay. You can only get to it by meandering down an extremely old highway that goes literally through a rain forest. This old highway includes steep drop offs on one side and "one way" bridges that are a little sketchy. Once you get here you can go on several different trails. Haven't explored those yet but are excited to!

We experienced something absolutely delicious and new tonight . . .the Super Loco Moco. Well at least M. did.
Just a few steps from us is the well known Cafe 100. A spot you MUST check out when you visit beautiful Hilo. We've been told multiple times that we must check out the famous Loco Moco but since it's so close we've taken it for granted. Finally tonight we decided to check it out. A good decision.
The Super Loco Moco includes:
A bed of white rice smothered in brown gravy.
Two lightly seasoned hamburger patties.
Two generous slices of SPAM.
A few slices of Portuguese Sausages.
Two eggs over easy.
AND
A side of traditional mac salad or tossed greens.
This picture says it all . . .

It's extremely hot here in Hawaii . . .like really hot . . .and muggy (humid). So in order to relieve ourselves of this we splurge in the local theater which has glorious air conditioning. This week we saw "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles". I'm still partial to the old school movie I grew up on but I do recommend seeing this movie. What made this movie for us was the three little kids sitting behind us. Their comments were priceless.
One more thing before I depart for today . . .we've been watching Shark Week as custom for this time of year. It's amazing how different Shark Week is when you live by he ocean and swim in it almost every week. . .very different and scary. Just a thought. : )

This weekend we're coming up on our THIRD Anniversary; how time flies. It's M.'s year . . .meaning he gets to plan the events of the day.
With him at the helm, I'm sure I'll have a spectacular post next time.
We miss you Utah . . .but we've Gone Surfing!
