Thursday, the day had arrived to see The Polynesian Cultural Center. I'm glad we saw the temple and the pipeline as it seemed there was too much to see and too little time. We stopped by the Dole Plantation, but it was raining so we got some cute purses and moved on. I really wanted to see the Waimea Botanical garden and I'm so glad I did. I t was like walking through the jungle, I saw so many lush and beautiful plants. I could have spent all day there. Tanya got in for a discounted price since she a local. I was amazed by the trees and the colors. I'm sure video game designers come to these gorgeous area and try to recreate them to help the player feel adventurous. I definitely felt like I wanted to see the world after seeing this beauty like I had never seen before. I was the only one to bring a bathing suit. It gets so warm there that I learned for comfort, I couldn't be with out my Hapari suits. At the end of the gardens you can swim to the waterfall. This was my highlight of the day so far and thoroughly enjoyed the splashing water, the current from the water hitting the pool, and greenery all around me. I walked back in my suit and we had lunch and it rained as we were eating and it was so beautiful. I'm glad I missed a little table drama while I changed clothes and thoroughly enjoyed my turkey burger. I ate healthy while in Hawaii, I had so much energy and excitement. It was a true vacation.
The PCC was beautiful and well done. I didn't realize it would be like the Tiki Room at Disneyland. Shows and more shows moving together in groups. I had to pause to get Emmy's travel plans situated and I was a bit distracted, but what I saw was very nice. The Breath of life show was beautiful and inspiring and the day was topped off by a Christmas Nativity lights canoe ride. It was beautiful and I loved the live music under the expanse of heaven. It made me realize how I love nature and live music! We saw Kieran play in his band performance that night. I loved the true songs of Christmas and Kieran's trombone descant of "Oh Come all ya Faithful." It was touching.
