| This
is Deb and a peacock at Smith's Tropical Garden and Luau Ceremony. It was fun
to watch the bird strut around and it actually seemed to do a little dance backing
up. | Before
the show, we performed a renewal of our marriage vows. Unfortunately, we ended
with NO pictures or video of the event. But we did get pictures of the show by
"Famous Hawaiian Singer" Larry Rivera. Famous maybe, but AltaVista only
got two hits. |
 |  |
| Larry's
wife is performing an authentic Hawaiian dance. Her moves were very flowing and
smooth. | Yes,
that is me that got sucked into the show. Somehow, I got nailed, I mean spotted,
by Larry. |
 |  |
| The
routine included twirling balls on ropes about two feet long. The girl in the
yellow dress was very good at this. | As
you can see, I was not so good and got my balls tangled up. The girl made it look
so easy! |
 |  |
| Always
the showman (showoff?) and happy to participate, they made me get down on the
floor and twirl. Was this supposed to be my 5 minutes of fame and glory? | Somehow,
my performance was judged as the best by the audience, by a large margin. My prize
was a phono album (not PHOTO) produced by Larry. I am still trying to figure out
how to get it in my car CD player so I can listen to the music. |

| We
are at the end of this day's tour, and the boat still looks huge. | I
just can't seem to get enough of this mid-ship atrium. |
 |  |
| Debbie
relaxing, and me still playing with my new camera in the atrium. | Leaving
port and passing through the breakwater barrier, I did not realize it was curved
until we passed it. |

| Goodby
Kauai. As we traveled, a new point of land would appear. I got four of them here,
but two more appeared after I took this picture. |
