The girls and I did do some sightseeing on our own.Here we are enjoying breakfast at a roadside produce stand.
We visited the "Painted Church". A Roman Catholic church still in use.
The interior is covered with murals depicting different bible stories
We noticed some of the local flora and fauna:
This is an avocado tree
This is a coffee tree
This is me exerting the 300 lbs per square inch it takes to crack a macadamia nut
Macadamia nuts are not picked. When they ripen, they fall off the trees to the ground. Then the farmers have to race all the wild pigs on the island to see who can get to them first.
