Happy Birthday Susan

Susan and Nicole

 Tonight, we are starting to celebrate a special day for one of the ladies in our household. It is the birthday of Susan, the love of my life. We decided to have dinner in Waikiki at one of our favorite places, Dukes. We got into Waikiki a little early and walked to the restaurant and took in some of the local entertainment on the streets, there was the "Silver Man", now there are multiple silver guys, a guy dressed in a newspaper suit, a stuffed life size hairy dog of some kind, singing people and a lot of people giving massages too.
Dinner was just as we remembered it from the last time, very good, even though the prices have changed. The service was excellent, all requests were dealt with in a very professional manner. The Hula Pie was a hit at the table and it even came with a gaggle of waiters and waitresses singing happy birthday to Susan. The finale was the strolling musicians, they accompanied Nicole with two songs for her to dance the hula, she has not lost a step in her hula moves and we can honestly say that we have gotten every penny and more from her dancing instructions. She was graceful and swayed along with the trade winds to the strumming of sweet hula music. No one could ask for anything more from and evening. There was also great company joining us, Mary, Lance and Melissa, they have returned to the islands for good from Coronado, yea." It doesn't get any better than this", famous last words of another friend. Well, now it's time to say good night and I hope your day was heavenly and everything was perfect.......aloha
