Yellowtail Coris - Kailua Bay 12dec06

Sinuses better today.

Didn't see any thing that looks like Xmas today. I think there are fewer decorations this year. Also, fewer tourists. The number of tourist will change come Dec 20th or so. But, I don't think more decorations will show up. I think the earthquake dampened the festive season.

Nothing fancy for dinner tonight - sausage and egg sandwiches. I was talking to a famous local chef this afternoon. He save me his "secret" receipt for kalua pig. (The traditional luau pig - cooked underground.) He uses a crock pot. Says that the old Hawaiians would have used a crock pot too - if they had had pottery and electricity!
