Chocolate-Vanilla

I knew I was not the only one who was crazy enough to find the appeal and lure of chocolate and vanilla.  Today we took a tour of Hilo which ended at the home of our tour guide who grows and roasts Kona coffee, grows, ferments and makes chocolate and has now begun to indulge in vanilla.

Here is a shot of a vanilla vine growing on the cacao tree in what will soon be a symbiotic relationship as structure, canape and space unite.
