Hawaii (Bob's Back)

December 30th, 2018...

Bob's back on the island! At 4pm I met Bob and his crew at the American Airlines host hotel. I kinda like this resort... a LOT!

This is The Kauai Marriott. Our first 2 nights on the island were at The Courtyard Marriott @ CoCo Beach. AA uses both hotels for crew & both are lovely... this is just bigger with more WOW factor!

There are 3 sand volleyball courts right in front of the resort which makes THIS Marriott our favorite! :-) Bob quickly exchanged his pilot uniform for board shorts. Friendly locals invited us to play & we got in 3 games by sunset. Speaking of sunset... it was on fire! I was pinching myself that I was on a Hawaiian island playing volleyball with my husband on his work trip.

Fun fact: 18 years ago we played volleyball on this very court! We knew the beach was familiar & realized it was the place we played in 2000 (we had stayed at a smaller hotel up the road back then).

A quick dip after volleyball & then a walk to dinner.

It was a short stroll to Duke's; a popular island hangout.

 Isn't sampling Mai Tai's required when you're in Hawaii?!
