Today we went to Lihue to the Verizon store. Ken thought that perhaps there was something wrong with his Galaxy S5 because it seemed that the audio port is not working. However it turned out that you just have to push the jack in farther than he thought so all's well that ends well. Meanwhile Lee did some shopping in Macy's looking for something to wear for our dinner tonight.
By the time we were done shopping it was well into the afternoon so we came home and fixed a big salad for lunch. We had a reservation for dinner this evening at the Hukilaulanai restaurant. We ordered the tasting menu, which is only offered early in the evening. It was a real delight. For a surprisingly reasonable price, we had a delicious five course meal complete with wine pairings.
From the first bite of tomato gazpacho with Koloa rum pineapple basil sorbet to the final bite of Big Island Vanilla Bean Creme Brulé, it was a gourmet experience. The setting looking out on the Pacific matched. When we sat down, the ocean was blue, but soon we noticed it looked more gray-green. As the light faded, the tiki torches were lit.
After dinner we walked along the beach, enjoying the crashing of the surf. The stars sparkled in the dark sky, and we even thought we saw the Milky Way.
