Just a of couple questions...

I've seen that litchis (which are being flown in from Madagascar) are 1.95 euros/kilo here.....that's about $1.20/lb. Is that pretty much what you'd see them for in the islands? That is, if you aren't lucky enough to own a tree or know a neighbor that has one.

Also, unleaded gasoline is about 1.10 euros/liter.....at the going rate of $1.36 to the Euro, that's about $5.70 a gallon! I'm not up to date on the gas prices back home, but please tell me that they haven't gone up that high!!! Are the gas prices drastically different between islands?

Right now, unleaded regular is $2.35 or so...

I think $1.20/lb for lychee sounds cheap!

Aloha,

Over 50 G's??? OUCH! I hope she isn't renting a place to live. That's one hefty down payment on a house.

I've never tasted litchis before.
