I can't believe we are in Kona, the place that grows the world's best coffee, and still can't get a decent cup anywhere.
Aloha Angel cafe had a broken down espresso machine. We stopped at the Royal Kona museum and gift shop (with Andi ready to give bean-by-bean instruction) but they said they couldn't make us an espresso because they didn't have the right milk.
There is hideous drip filter coffee EVERYWHERE that Americans inexplicably love, but I haven't had a good espresso for six weeks.
We're moving to Hawaii to teach Americans the proper way to drink coffee. Or at least Andi is. My mission is to communicate the notion of tea made with BOILING not BOILED water, as fellow tea drinker the late and wonderful Douglas Adams complained.
On to other non-beverage news, a gorgeous morning snorkelling in crystal clear water looking at coral, brilliant fish and green turtles, then walking around an ancient site where the royal class used to live, all white coral sand and coconut trees. Very nice thankyou.
Love Jesse
