Happy Halloween!
Last weekend we battled another hurricane. Luckily hurricane Ana traveled just South enough from Honolulu and the Hawaiian Islands as a whole that the only effect we felt was A LOT of rain. It rained for about two and a half days straight here in Honolulu, and flash flooding was prevalent throughout the islands. We had a nice cozy weekend and were thankful that everyone was safe during the third hurricane of the season. We hope that we can come out this well as hurricane season comes to a close over the next month or so.
So after a weekend of being cooped up in the house we took advantage of the nice weather and a Halloween block party - Hallowbaloo! Every year Honolulu puts on a large street party in Chinatown. They close down many of the streets, set up food and drink stands, and several stages with music. It was a fun party! Will dressed as a scuba diver and I was a peacock.
At one of the booths there was a Jenga game set up and you could draw a block and the name of a prize was written on the bottom. The piece I drew read "Bonus" and the bonus was a 6-pack of beer! They gave me a gift certificate and I picked it up from a nearby store a few days later. It was good beer, too, Kona Brewing Company's Big Wave!
And since we're old now we left at 10pm when the street fair closed because we didn't feel like dealing with the bars! ha! Happy Halloween!
