Coconuts

I’m taking a break from the scenic landscapes to give you a peak at Hawaii culture.

This man is preparing coconut's to sell as drinks by cutting down the outside husk and cutting off the top. When he cuts off the top he cuts through the actual coconut inside. If you take a close look in the bottom left corner, you'll see an example. It's the only coconut that has a straw sticking out of it.

The man's knife was really sharp, and he was really fast. I wasn't timing him, but I think that he could finish one in less than 30 seconds.

This picture was taken at a swap meet (flea market) in Pearl City/Aiea that caters primarily to locals.
