An Anini kind of Day


Do I need to say it was a day of deep relaxation? (Although I can be twitchy.)
Found a good deal on oatmeal at Foodland, so made a nice pot to accompany the fresh apple bananas and Lion coffee, This after meditation and sunrise.
The phone rings to invite us to the new guests reception at 8:30. . .oh, yes, we wouldn't miss the massage therapist! I am first in line. Charlie massages for a tip, while the different presenters pull out all the stops, selling Kauai. The massage is magnifico, and dan-o has one too!





Then it's straight to Anini Beach at 10. We settle onto those virgin sands and gaze in wonder. Reading and admiring the surf until hunger gets the better of us. Off to the Kiluea Fish Market for two Ahi tuna wraps which were juicy with sesame seed oil and mayo and red chili sauce:succulent mouthfuls. We stopped by 'aunties' for a pair of huge sweet tangerines to enhance the experience.



Back to reading The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, and a stroll before calling it a day. Dan spots a 'red snapper' like Hawaiian fish following us in the water, a foot off shore. Very peculiar to see a fish let alone, 'walk with one! I give Dad a call in CST, Margaret fell and is pretty bruised up, they both have Doctor's appointments on the 26th.
We shower and relax before the next pupu party for owners at 5. We sit with Californians, Marion and Pete, who are here for the first time, having traded their Tahiti property :-) I think Dan is interested in the Thursday Scramble at the Princeville Golf Club. It's pretty reasonable considering its in the top 78 courses! We retire to the grass skirt of property, fronting the condos to watch sunset. Then, make a plate of spaghetti again with fresh parmesan. It's Italian goodness. . .we don't need much to be very happy here.


Aloha. . .
