Aloha to Spam Jam in Waikiki Beach!


We have a winner from last week's blogs - Jane!

My travel buddies, Renee and Nadja, are also winners as they scored tickets to the advance screening of BATTLESHIP at the Navy's historic Sharkey Theater.  I'll post the link to their reviews when available.   Meanwhile, the Hawaii Food Bank is a winner from SPAM JAM on Waikiki Beach.   From its website (at this link),

The WAIKIKI SPAM JAM®Festival is a street festival that celebrates the people of Hawaii's love for SPAM®products a canned meat from Hormel Foods. In Hawaii, you will find SPAM®family of products at all grocery and convenience stores, many restaurants and in most homes in Hawaii.

This street festival is great for all ages, as the event includes Hawaii's top restaurants, two stages with free entertainment,and a variety of Hawaiian crafters. This is also a special event that benefits the Hawaii Food Bank, the largest non-profit in Hawaii that feeds the needy.



Located at the corner of Kalakaua and Seaside,
the crowds enjoyed the blue skies
and trade winds.

The Air Force's Band of the Pacific opened the festival.

Who knew the Air Force could rock?!?
  
Love the jerseys!  

Sandwiched between the Spam is
a Hawaii Food Bank volunteer.

David choose Gordon Biersch's Mac and Spam 
and Jo Anne tried PF Chang's Spam Lo Mein.

Spam is everywhere ... 

... and so is Five-O
(in the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center).
   
We popped into the Royal Hawaiian Hotel
for an awesome view of Diamond Head.

One randomly selected commenter wins a can of Spam Flavored Macadamia Nuts ...
