This morning dawned bright and sunny again-very nice to see! We went out for Sunday brunch at the Ka'anipali Beach Resort. They are the only Sunday brunch on the island apparently! And it's a champagne brunch, lol! Most everyone is seated outside, although the brunch buffet was inside what looked to be a showroom of some sort. They offered a lot of Chinese style dishes as well as roasted potatoes, breakfast sausages (sorry, no bacon), and scrambled eggs. After that long set of tables was the the salad bar with fresh fruit (watermelon, pineapple and green melon). They had an omelet station and a seafood station with sushi. Lots of food! There was also a separate dessert set of tables complete with a chocolate fountain. It did bring back memories of Bolongo, although we didn't do anything so grand as this buffet.
After brunch we went walking on Ka'anipali Beach and I walked a bit in the water. It's cold! I was told the water temperature of the ocean in Hawaii is about 78 degrees, but it felt colder than that. Ah, well. We also stopped at the store in the Kapalua complex and looked around. They have a small grocery store, deli and gift shop. A pound of strawberries was $10.49!! A pint of raspberries was $6.98 but a pint of blueberries from Chile was only $5.55 (only! Guess it all depends on your point of view). I did take pictures so I'll have to come back and add them.
I was planning on going to the pool in the afternoon, but it rained. The sun did end up coming out for a bit and I did get to go to the pool, but when it started to rain again, that was the end of it. Dinner was Roasted Ribeye Steak with a Red Wine Pan Sauce, baked Muffin Pan Potato Gratin and a green salad with Emmenthaler Cheese and walnuts and Dijon Vinaigrette. Nice dinner! Especially since there was a bottle of 2007 Chateauneuf de Pape from France. Very smooth!
No Charlie Brown special tonight,lol. Instead it was Masterpiece Theater on PBS. Not much else to report...
