Quattro

Another morning hanging out in the sun

They have these really nice love seat type things right along the cliff in front of the pool they are very comfy and the perfect place to relax and enjoy the sun and the view. And they come around periodically with ice water, fruit skewers, sandwiches, smoothie samples, cold wet wash clothes, etc. Talk about the lap of luxury! I think I would get way too lazy if I lived like this all of the time, but it's perfect for vacation.

Then for we took the long twisty shuttle ride back into Lanai city to do some souvenir shopping and have some lunch.

We ate lunch at the Poke (sounds like Pokey) market. Poke is Hawaiian style sushi. This is where all of the locals eat and was fun to try. It wasn't bad.

For dinner we headed out on a sunset Catamaran ride. We got the perfect spot right on the front of the boat (sitting on one of those trampoline looking things).  

On our way out. They served what they called "picnic food" some chicken skewers with sauce, a couple of sushi rolls, spring rolls, refular bread rolls, fruit, and cheese. Yum

Awe. They had good food and drinks. Of course we didn't go for any of the alcoholic beverages, but the guy doing drinks brought us a pineapple ginger ale mix that was yummy.

The best part of the ride was when we drove right into a pod of dolphins

They were very friendly and let the boat come right up close. They were jumping and waving and one even did a flip.

We were so close and it was so cool to see them. The first day we were there one of the hotel staff was telling us about the dolphins and said that if there is a pregnant lady in the water they will circle around her.  She said they can actually sense that extra presence and want to protect her. According to the story there was a lady out snorkeling and the dolphins circled around her. When she got back to town she did a pregnancy test and Surprise, she was pregnant! 

There wasn't much wind, so they only put the sail up for a little while.

This is Sweet Heart rock again, the ocean view.

This is supposed to be our sunset picture, unfortunately it didn't turn out very good

There's the ship after we got back all lit up in the dark.

Palm  trees! They actually have tons of coconuts in them. So cool

Going back to our room we saw TONS of these little lizards all over the hall ways. (the hall ways are open) Yet another great day!
