Day 209: Off to the DQ!

Tuesday, July 31, 2012

Dailylife Daughter #1, Toots and Lugnut came to dinner the other night.  Dessert was at Dairy Queen! Lugnut doesn’t get to have ice cream cones in the car, but he sure likes them here! Then it is on to after-dessert entertainment! It WAS good ice cream! ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 172: The Princeville Marketplace

Saturday, June 23, 2012

I guess we saved the best place for last…we didn’t hit the Marketplace until our last day on Kauai.  We had a great lunch at the steakhouse, and forgot to use our discount from the Bali Hai Villas were were staying at… All photos are from my iPod. A chicken sandwich: good food with a […]

Day 150

Saturday, June 2, 2012

After our trip up to see Waimea Canyon, we stopped at a nice little place in Waimea, The Grove Cafe, at Wiamea Plantation Cottages on the west side of town. (All photos from my Apple iPod!) They had old ovens and Tiki Torches! It came well recommended by current patrons. After a quick perusal of […]

Day 142: Meanwhile, back on Kauai!!!

Friday, May 25, 2012

(It is hard to believe it has been just shy of two months since I took these photos!) This is our new friend, Pearl.  She’s in real estate on Kauai. One of our tour drivers had mentioned the Beach Hut, near the cruise ship dock in Lihue.  We decided we needed to find this marvelous […]

Day 120: About eating onboard the ship!

Thursday, April 26, 2012

About the fourth day of our seven day around Hawai’i cruise, we discovered the Lanai Buffet.  This is the mostly outdoor extension of the main buffet where we ate.  It was nice to sit and eat out there, except for the wind.  One many occasions you had to hold your food on the plate or […]

Day 114: Dinner!

Monday, April 23, 2012

There was a great dinner included (it is a Luau, after all!).  It (dinner, hula and show) are all held in a big open air pavillion.  How big?  It has it’s own tree! It was done buffet style.  While there were a lot of people, we were called up by table and it went very […]

Day 110: The Big Island Day Two pt 6

Tuesday, April 17, 2012

One last photo near the Church! They do seem to like their coffee on Kona… … …… … On the corner of Walmart… Of course, Harley Davidson. Finally, where we broke our silence on Facebook!  Internet was $0.40/minute (onboard the ship…it is free at the Kona Brewing Co.)!  We waited. A delicious pizza, with far […]

Day 89: Onboard the Pride of America!

Monday, April 2, 2012

It was a very orderly boarding of the Pride of America, but we still had about a three and a half hour wait until our stateroom was ready.  The ship carries 2200-2400 passengers, and all of those staterooms have to be cleaned and refitted between about 10am and 3pm.  We looked around a bit, and […]

Day 87: Still around Honolulu!

Saturday, March 31, 2012

From the Hawaiian Railway Society we headed down to Downtown and Waikiki! We quickly found the Hard Rock Cafe, and looped the block thrice before locating a parking garage…that is MY chocolate milkshake, BTW… The Hard Rock Wave of Guitars… … . The Dailylife Wife’s lemonade… Our lunch: Nachos! A small part of Waikiki Beach. […]

Day 83: Samoa and more!

Monday, March 26, 2012

Each of the “villages” represents a separate set of Islands and their culture.  They have demonstrations and shows. This guy was pretty good, lame jokes and all.  He showed how to start a fire with a stick and a coconut! He also showed how to kill a coconut… This guy showed how to climb a […]
