Pau Hana T’s is also ready for 2021 with its fancy Hawaiian greeting, “Hauoli makahiki hou,” outside the door, welcoming shoppers into the world of Kaua‘i Life, It is what it is, and more.
Santa may have left Candy Cane Lane, but his sleigh is still there, and Elsa and Anna of Disney’s “Frozen” fame came to watch over the sleigh. Yes, you could hear the Latin sounds of Gypsy Spice over the shopping-center speakers, and who turned off the pipe to climbers at the Pali Climbing Wall that will be at KGC for just a couple more weeks before heading to Anaina Hou Community Park in Kilauea.
So, what was the secret, Adam Coyaso, who had a crowd at his fresh-coconut tent Saturday at Puhi Park Produce? Those were residents, not visitors, and Johnny and Terri Gordines of Tropical Flowers Express (he was eyeing that gorgeous cauliflower at the Glory Farms table. It’s amazing how fast the mizuna can grow in a week’s time) were ready to resume their New Year holiday happenings.
OK, time to go check out the Sustainable Boost table at the Pau Hana Market at KGC at 3 p.m. today.
