Kailua-Kona

February 13, 2017 – Kailua-Kona

Today was a trip to Kailua-Kona (aka Kona).   It is the center of commerce and of the tourist industry on West Hawaii. It is designated Kailua-Kona to differentiate it from Kailua located on windward side of Oahu island, and it is sometimes referred to as Kona (thus aka Kona) in everyday speech. (Confused yet?)

First let us say that it is difficult to park in Kona.  After much circling, the car was positioned in front of a law office next to a McDonald’s.  (Debbie was concerned about the car being towed and looked longingly at the car as she left. Joyce will park anywhere).  They visited several sites in Kona listed below:

  • Farmer’s Market  – They didn’t buy anything.  (Who are these people and what have they done with Larry and Debbie?)
  • Moku’aikaua Church –  History Moment:  This is the oldest Christian church in the Hawaiian islands.  The congregation was first founded in 1820 by Asa and Lucy Goodale Thurston, from the first ship of American Christian Missionaries, the brig Thaddeus. They were given permission to teach Christianity by King Kamehameha II, and the Queen Regent Kaʻahumanu.  This is the church where Larry was trapped by a docent.  Next time that you see Larry ask him about this church.  Debbie was almost pulled into the history speech but thought that Larry could tell her anything that she needed know.  Debbie indicated that she was with Larry and was released.
  • Huliheʻe Palace – The former vacation home of Hawaiian royalty, it was converted to a museum run by the Daughters of Hawaii, showcasing furniture and artifacts. (We didn’t get to visit this palace.  There was a party going on the palace grounds and a man stood at the door telling the group that they could not go in.  This made everyone very sad so they sat on the wall in the shade and watched the party guests sit in the sun and sweat.)
  • McDonalds – The group was really hot and needed a bathroom.  Larry made the sacrifice and bought a hamburger for a snack to get the special bathroom code.  He seemed pretty happy about the hamburger.

Luckily, the car was still parked at the lawyer’s office and had not been towed.

Larry was able to share some historical facts on the way home.  He might become a docent.   Docent – a person who acts as a guide, typically on a voluntary basis, in a museum, art gallery, or zoo.  Don’t you think Larry would be a fine docent?
