Uncle Roberts Awa Bar and the Unexpected Black Sand Beach

 Tonight we drove out to "Uncle Roberts," a local music / food / fun place.  There was a local band,  Kalapala Awa Band, playing music with a Hawaiian vibe and a variety of food vendors.

When we parked, we noticed people walking back from a wide path and we were curious, so we took a walk out that way to discover the black sand Kaimu Beach!   It was so interesting to see baby palm trees growing straight out of the black rocks ... nature finds a way!  It wasn't a "beach" in the traditional sense of the word ... but rather a bluff at the end of a lava field that looks down into the ocean.

It was getting dark fast, so we headed over to Uncle Roberts for dinner and dancing!  So much fun!  Jonathan and Scarlett danced for a few minutes (link to the video at the bottom of this post), Christian and Jennifer danced for a few minutes, and then Jonathan and Jennifer danced a while, too. :)
