One of the things I love most about Hawaii is that even when its cloudy and rainy for days, it’s still a gorgeous place.

It’s not just randomly called the rainbow state

Since the beginning of 2013, 6 days, I’ve seen over 12 rainbows. Two of them being double rainbows. I do have to report that no pots of gold have been found. Yet.

Speaking of rainbows, I’ve also been eating the rainbow.

Some not so healthy.

But mostly the healthier stuff. I’m in fruit heaven.

And my current fave:

Papaya with plain greek yogurt and a sprinkling of chia.
So deliciously creamy and sweet.

I’m surprised at the staying power of this papaya + yogurt combo since it totally kept me full throughout the hike/run/walk combo I did later that morning.

Originally I had planned to go to koko head, but the rain and wind kind of changed my plans for me. I drove out to Koko Head only to see it surrounded by clouds and a light drizzle and ended up driving a bit further, about 5-10 mins down the road to Makapu’u Point Lighthouse where skies were fairly clear and roads were dry.

The rain may not have been coming down there, but that didn’t mean it wasn’t windy.

You can tell by the clothes on my hike buddy, aka my brother, and by the choppiness of the ocean that the winds were a blowin.

It’s still fairly windy, but the random rain and drizzle has mostly subsided so perhaps I’ll eventually make it out to Koko head before I leave this colorful island.

Have a good night y’all!

What colors of the rainbow have you been eating lately?
