Robert's Updates: Last days in Hawaii

So this is the last post of pictures from our Hawaiian vacation, unless I find more that I want to post. On our last day we were lucky to get a late checkout so we could spend the morning on the beach. Since our flight wasn't until 8:30, it was like a whole extra day of vacation.

The weather was beautiful again which to me was a sign from God telling us to come back. Ok, God. We'll come back. After a thoroughly relaxing morning we cleaned up and packed our bags and checked out of the hotel. Then we grabbed some lunch at Frederico's. This little mexican place was awesome! They had GREAT tacos! Wish there was a Frederico's in atlanta.

After lunch we went on a timeshare tour so we could start building up our starwood points for the next vacation! I had never been on a tour before so I was kind of curious as to how it all works. Before we went in, I was assigned the role of "Bad Cop". Basically my job was to piss on the timeshare parade. My kind of job!

The tour was very little about the actual facility and more about how you can use the points that you are actually buying to go anywhere you want. You see, you are not buying a week at a hawaiian villa, you are actually buying enough points each year to go to a hawaiian villa for a week. Get it? It's not too complicated I assure you. Once we had been there for 90 minutes I quickly put the kabash on the tour. I mean we had to go! We were not buying anything. The salesman then asked me, "If money weren't a consideration. Take money out of it. Would you be interested in the package??" I emphatically answered, "Yes! This is a wonderful package. Especially if we could get it for no money." That was his last ditch effort on the emotional sell. He gave up quickly.

On our way out we grabbed a couple complimentary cokes and hit the road for the south side of Kauai. Along the way we stopped at a nice beach to check out some people surfing on larger waves. They were much better than Laura and I. After that we ate dinner at the Olympic Cafe (not that great). At first I ordered a burger, but had to sent it back because there was mold on the bun. Nice. Instead I got fish and chips. Word of warning. Do NOT, I repeat do NOT eat an entire plate of fried fish and french fries dipped in vinegar and tartar sauce before you board an airplane for 11 hours.

just sayin.

Then we made it home! Here are some final pictures from our last day in Hawaii.
