"Grandpa,
what's the
difference
between
field in the
mainland
and field
in Hawaii?"
"Well, one
thing that's
different is
that in the
mainland,
when you
go field, we
go break
at some
coffee place
like Tully's,
Starbucks,
or some
foofoo place
but over in
Hawaii, you
can break
at Leonards
and eat hot
malasadas,
or Aiea get
fresh manas, baked or steamed....or you can go Aiea
shave ice place and have anykine flavor with azuki
beans and ice cream on top...or you can go anyplace
and get fresh ahi poke with cold Budweiser...."
"What grandpa, you can drink beer in field in Hawaii?"
"Oh yeah......... After you pau field you can....
no forget to take off your tie..."
"Grandpa, what else is different about field in Hawaii?"
"Well in Hawaii, you can tell your return visit, 'Eh bla-lah,
