- The Ko Olina Wedding Chapel
Today was a day of R&R so we did not have any big adventures. We did walk down the shore to the JW Marriott Resort. We are at a Marriott timeshare so we had full privileges at the resort.
Destination weddings are big business in Hawaii.
We got to the resort and they had a saltwater pool of beautiful fish like you would see in an aquarium. All different colors and as we watched a gorgeous sting ray glided past.
Sting ray in the pool!
The resort is luxurious! We sat at this opulent seaside pool and ordered lunch, a healthy one at that!

- No sting rays in this pool!
Dinner this evening was totally local. The fish was called Hebi, a Hawaiian fish similar to marlin. it was topped with a papaya seed vinaigrette and a papaya salsa. Beside it was a locally grown purple sweet potato (two actually!). We sat and watched a luau performance as we dined on this local feast!
