Oahu, Hawaii adventures

Just got back from a trip to Honolulu, Hawaii. I was traveling as the Assistant Coach for my soccer club's under 18 boys team. We won the Colorado State Cup which qualified us to represent at the Region IV championships. For those interested in the soccer, follow this link for stories and pics........ http://www.westminsterafc.com/

While in Oahu, InI made several trips to check out the local ital scene, gardens, and also made some nice linkups.

On Saturday June 14th ( InI first morning there) I took a bunch of the boys to the premier Farmers' Market on Oahu at Kapiolani Community College. Several of the pictures will show a bustling scene. I have to admit that the organics/ ital was hard to find. After digging in and reasoning with a few farmers, I was hooked up with the goods. Big up to Manny and Dan at MA'O Organic Farm for the good vibes, food, and the t-shirt. http://www.maoorganicfarms.org/

Stay tuned for a bit more........
