A quiet day.....

Day 9 – Feb 5, 2011

The day started slowly as we were all tired the night before. We got together for breakfast at 10:00 and enjoyed the buffet at Kukuio’s. There was a good selection of breakfast delights and we went at it like we had not eaten in days. From there we went to the beach to put in a few hours of reading, snoozing and catching a few rays. The beach was pretty busy with a group of locals monopolizing the volleyball court and playing some pretty good games challenging each other. We learned later that one of the girls was actually on the U.S. team as a volleyball player. This provided some entertainment as we enjoyed the quiet time and the heat of the sun. The weather will play into our plans for the week so we decided to take advantage of the sun when it was around.

Later in the day we took a trip to town and the Walmart for some essentials shopping. I bought a neat little wallet for a card or two and some cash instead of lugging around a full heavy wallet all the time. The ladies picked up some other stuff none of which I questioned. We returned to the resort and went to the Kukuio’s bar for happy hour. We met Duck and Kari there again. They were with their friends who arrived the day before. Eddie, our server made us feel very welcome and we chatted with other guests for a while. It rained a downpour as the daylight left the sky.

We then walked to the highway and went to Meriachi’s for some Mexican food. It was good and we enjoyed some fajitas and enchiladas along with some cheap wine. Then we walked back to the resort and had to pass the bar again. Duck and Kari were still there so we joined them for a nightcap or two. The evening slipped away pretty fast and we crashed at about 11. A fun and not too hectic time was had by all.

Now that I look at this day we really didn’t do very much. However it was a vacation day for sure.
