Day 2

A day of shopping

We were to plan our week's activity today and had alloted the day for some souvenir shopping.

I've made some phone calls to make reservations for our activities. I was able to make two, one for Monday (tomorrow) and the other one on Friday. The Friday activity seems very popular, the concierge had told us that it was fully booked for the week. It was a good thing I called in just the same and we were lucky to get a spot on our last day in the island.

Went to Walmart to buy souvenirs to take back home. I think we've eliminated all on our list by the time we stepped out of the store.

The condo was looking very empty after we returned. Last year we had a family reuinion here and it was a full house. It was kind of hard to match that this year but it would be great to have some R&R on our own this time.

Tomorrow we need to get up early and drive for more than an hour to the north side of the island, Hanalei.

Hanalei is where they filmed the movie "South Pacific". The mountains where Peter, Paul and Mary got inspired with the song "Puff the Magic Dragon" and where they coined the term "Bali Hai".
