We went to visit the Hawaii Plantation Village last week, it is very close to the house and I had been meaning to go there for a while. It is a recreation village of various houses and structures that would have been around at the turn of the century to house migrant workers who came to work in the sugarcane fields. It was a long tour (1.5 hours) but the boys hung in there pretty well. The tour guide started out by promising to let them feed the fish in the ponds at the end, so there was a little bribery up front.
Most of the buildings at the site were recreations based on measurements of actual original structures. It was a beautiful day and an interesting tour. They have some taro fields here, taro is what they use to make poi (which I still haven't tried yet since I've been here).
The boys did get to feed the fish at the end and had a good time. This guy below apparently waits for the tours to come by and has a nice meal.
