Annual Kauai Trip

[slip]

We ended out at Gaylords early because clouds were too heavy to jump. We
Head back there in three hours. Just finishing at Gaylords.

I second the Mai Tai's at Keoki's. My wife loved the frozen Mai Tai too.

Yep, that's one happy camper. I think sky diving is going to be one of my bucket list items (although it will be the very last item on the list )

You'll really enjoy that. I hope you get to see the dolphins, if you do, run to the front of the boat and watch them play right by the front of the hull

I'm glad we made Napali but we had 10 foot swells on the way there and they
We're handing out the bags like they were candy. I had a rough go for a while
But managed to get through it. Napali didn't disappoint. We saw some Dolphins
And some whales. I pretty sure I got them on video. I'll have to see later. Great
Lunch and a great crew.

I hope that you have nice pictures too.

I think you two are having your 2nd childhood - but you do it at least once a year! Or maybe this is permanent?

So before DW skydiver, we did go to Gaylords for the Sunday brunch. $29.95
Each and it was really good, everything was great. I would go again but I know
Some people wouldn't think it was worth it. I have a few pictures I'll post.
If you go I would make a reservation but it wasn't really full but we were there
Right when they opened.

I think you're right it's permanent,

After Captain Andy, we went to the Saimin place in Ele Ele, guess who I run into?
Kimo! He remembered me and came over and talked some more. I think he still
Had a load on.

We went to Lava Lava for the first time tonight. It was pricey but the
Atmosphere, food and service were fantastic. The had the seafood special. It
Was swordfish and it was the best seafood dinner I've ever had. I could have
Licked the plate. DW has A Kilua pork flat bread and she loved hers too. I know
It must have been good if she said she would like to come back.

The Mai Tai was good too. Same owners as Huggos so if you've had one there it's
The same. Mine was $37 and DW's was $16. Mai Tai was $9. They don't have a
Large menu but the food came out pretty quick and it all looked good and people
We're saying how good everything was.

The toes in the sand I'd nice and they did a good job setting it up but remember
When you sit down your chair goes down in the sand and there's no sliding it
Forward.

Here's a few pictures.
