Wednesday, 7/25 - The Big Island - Relaxation Day



Today was our 'down day' to explore the resort and relax at the pool - the question being, which of the pools we would visit. The resort is so huge - it's comprised of three large complexes or 'towers' of rooms. We are staying in the Ocean Tower, which is furthest from the main check in, but has the best views and landscaped areas of the resort, we decided. Complete with a giant Buddha statue, it is the Zen side of the resort.


We decided to make the 13+ minute trek over to the opposite side of the resort to check out the giant pool, complete with water slide, grotto, water falls, and hot tubs (3!). We spent until after lunch just crisping up and swimming.

Lunch was the hamburger special - grill burger, fries, and a Mai Tai for $19.00 - a bargain considering the Mai Tai was $13.00 on it's own.

The rest of the day consisted of snorkeling at another beach outside the resort, and dinner out at the Kings shops.
