I followed Elizabeth Fraser's video of how to open a coconut on her website www.girlgoneraw.com  She makes it look so very easy!! I thought that it was interesting that every coconut has a soft spot on the top that makes it easier to open. It was a challenge and I had to be very careful with the knife!!

I'll admit that I have not yet mastered cracking open a coconut. After draining it I usually wrap it in a plastic bag and give it to my son who enjoys thwacking it against the cement walkway in front of the house :)

Looks like you did just fine with this one!
