October 20, 2012 - Vacation Day 9, Cruise Day 7 - Kauai, Part 3
We stopped one last time before we made it to the bottom and recorded
THIS LITTLE VIDEO before taking one last picture.
These pictures truly do not do this any justice. It was so much more beautiful then these pictures.
It was lunch time at this point and we were hungry. We had passed a little roadside shack called the Shrimp Station. We stopped and I jumped out to grab us some shrimp.
I picked a Coconut Shrimp and a Garlic Shrimp. I was not real sure what we would end up with but each one was about $9 so I figures we could share.
Look at those shrimp. OMG the Garlic Shrimp were the best shrimp I have ever had. They were so good. The Coconut shrimp was so sweet! MMMM
We then explored the island some more. A Firehouse picture for my sister.
We went to the best gift shop. Pete bought his employees gifts, I got the kids Hawaiian outfits and my sister a pretty sarong. We got a Tiki Mask for our bedroom wall. Dancing Hula Girls for the dashboard, bracelets, necklaces....sooo much stuff. We were in the store for hours.
This was outside the shop....HAHA!
We drove around the other side of the island after shopping.
I have never saw anything so gorgeous!
We then stopped to take a walk in a little park next to the beach.
Pete decided he wanted some alcohol and I wanted a Famous (ok, maybe not famous but I saw Guy from the food network go here) Puka Dog.
We went to the shopping center.
After leaving there we went to yet another shopping center. I wanted a Hawaiian dress but could not find a style I liked. I settled for an amazing beach hat!
We had to rush to fill up the gas tank and return the car to the Airport. It didn't take long and before we knew it our time on Kauai was over. It went sooo fast! We loved Kauai, so very much. Pete said it is his favorite Island.
Again we were so tired. I wanted to skip dinner and go to bed. LOL
We did take a nap (so glad we had late dining) and then got ready for dinner. I wore jeans to the main dining room. I never do that, but I did not have it in me. I was tired and wasn't feeling it.
Donald and Daisy had a great time on the island. They were out for pictures in the lobby.
Tonight was a Hawaiian menu and I did not like anything on the menu. Bogdan tried really hard to find something I would want and he brought tons of options.
And what I ended up with..........
After dinner we went to the shops to look around. Then we stopped by the cubs to see what was going on. I was tired though so we didn't go in.
A Turtle was waiting for us when we got back to the room.
Pete went up on deck to talk to his deck group about their day. I went to bed! Aulani is tomorrow and it was another early early day!
