Day 2

Last night we went to an amazing restaurant and ate freshly caught fish! It also seems here every place has their own way of making a margarita, this place used pineapple and orange juice. In celebration of our marriage we were even given a free dessert, a baked hawaiian. It has chocolate and vanilla ice cream along with seared meringue on top.This morning we went on a 4 hour atv ride through the jungle. We got to see spots where some famous movies have filmed a couple scenes like Jurassic Park and Indiana Jones. We got so dirty on this ride we are still rubbing dirt off us. On the ride we went to 2 waterfalls and a swimming hole with a rope swing. John made some pretty painful sounding flops in the water :). As soon as we had showeres after the atv trip we went straight to the luau tonight. We got to see them remove a pig from there earthen oven. Then we went into the dining hall where there were free mai tais. For dinner there was an amazing array of different hawaiian foo!
ds, inclu
ding the smoked pig, poi, fresh fruits from their private grove, mahi mahi, and teriaki beef. It all tasted amazing! During dinner a funny peacock was displaying his feathers and making quite a bit of
noise. We had fun watching it dance around. After dinner there was a cool dancing show with polynesian, chinese, japanese, hawaiian, phillipine, and new zealand style dancing. It was all so amazing looking. I expecially enjoyed the fire dancing. John really like the chinese lion dance. I will post some pictures in the morning, we have had a tiring day.
