Occupying every square inch of space at Aliiolani Elementary
School were about 150 vendors of all kinds – homemade snacks, food, trinkets,
Hawaiian ornaments, locally made tee shirts, dress blouses, aloha shirts, key
chains, Hello Kitty, Angry Bird, other toon characters … you name it, somebody
probably was selling it.
Jeez, were there a lot of people there … actually more than
enough to make me uncomfortable (I hate walking sideways in a shuffle, trying
to squeeze between people and getting my sandal-protected toes stepped on).
Still, it was a good opportunity to checking things out and
do some of our Christmas shopping, which we did. We mostly stuck to the locally
made items, for isn’t that what these fairs are supposed to do? Promote locally
made small-business products, that is?
I was so busy wandering and buying stuff (including 10 langoustine
lobster tails for $20) that I didn’t take a lot of pictures … but I did take
some. Here are a few:
There’s another show next Saturday closer to us – the Nohelani
School fair in Manoa. Somehow I have a feeling we’ll be going to that one too.
See ya there.
