Our resort has this thing called the welcome breakfast. They bribe you with free food and breakfast, while they talk about how to get around the Island and the rules of the road. They also have tour operators come and talk to you about the great deals they have to offer you as a client of the resort. However, to get the really fantastic deals, you have to get the Aloha card. To get that, you have to do the timeshare presentation. I don't care what they tell you. Do not believe them. You do get great stuff from sitting through a presentation, and some of them even make enough sense to buy. This one was 4 hours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I will never get that vacation time back. The only saving grace was that the girls were allowed to watch movies and I had been smart enough to pack a picnic lunch that they were able to eat while they were there. Sigh.
Once released from the presentation, with the Aloha card in hand, we went straight to the beach. We found Ka'ahulua Beach today. It had salt and pepper sand, facilities, and not too many people in the afternoon sun. The best part was that in the water just by our feet were tang fish and turtles! They were swimming and munching right along the shore. We spent hours on the beach watching them until the sun finally started to set. Awesome day in the end that was followed up by a sunset stop and Walmart before hitting the pool at the resort. Yep, didn't do much today and that is just fine with me. TURTLE!
