Paddle Little One,Paddle

Tuesday March 10th 2020

There was a time long a go, when while spending our vacation in Kauai, where the sun came bursting over the mountain range and the moon was still up.  We bought a sweat shirt that showed both the sun and the moon in Kauai.  We had a full moon last night and low and behold it has happen again to us.




It's about seven in the morning, with the sun coming over the mountains shining brightly on our day.  There, there it is the moon over the waters Lanai.  I think you can see and feel and see the brightness and freshness of the day.

It was warn with little wind this morning so we decided to eat on the lani.  Most mornings we go quick and simple.





Today we have Belgian Style Waffles.  Now this product is not Eggo's, but wait the box shows ticker than Eggo's.  Well we will see.


Well here is the pouf, they are and they taste the same.  Well how about that sports fans.

While sitting on the Lani and drinking my coffee, I saw something unusual.  There were two long boarders going in front of our resort.  I got my binoculars out, you know I always have them close by.  The first long boarder, a women, was cruising along.  The second long boarder was in the water.

As I look closer, I could see a very young child.  The father was trying to get back on the board.  Sorry about the quality of the picture.  The women finally stopped  paddling and sat down on her board.  She looked back only to see her husband in the water and their child with paddle in hand trying to help.  Instead she lays down on her back for at least 5 minutes before turning over and  paddling back to them.  She arrived back by her husband and child.  She in my opinion did nothing to help.  He tried to get back on the long board and could not.  He even put the child in the water  and tried to get back on the board with little results.
Plan "B".  He put the child back on the board and swam to the back and paddled while the child paddled.  That didn't work because they were not making much headway.
Plan "C".  They started to make some head way by the father giving the long board a push and swimming back to the board, with the little child paddling. With exhaustion settling in, the father.  After a short rest it beginning once again the father pushing and the child paddling. At this point they went behind a big tree and they were no longer insight.  When they came back into view the father was on the board.  There is a bunch to coral out there, so maybe he could stand on one to get back on the long board.  What can you say to those parents. I would say you F.... idiots.  You should be arrested for child neglect.  Humm, can you arrest then for being stupid?

We ate lunch having a sandwich and some potato salad.

After lunch and a short rest we went down to the ocean and sat under our favorite tree.  Later we headed back to our condo . Well Clela stayed down by the restaurant and I went back to our condo.  It's Hula night.I got some money and went back down where she found us some lounge chairs.  Before the show starts they sell punch and rum drinks I got two,  As he was poring he said you take this one.  okay.  Now everybody knows we don't drink much.
 The show started with music and then then into hula dancers.  The first performer was a little keki .  In Hawaiian language. That means a little child.



From the youngest to the oldest.

Yes this performer was here the first time we came here to this island exclusive, that was the early 2000.  How about that.
That was our day because I can't remember what we had for supper or anything.  Okay I had one drink at the show.  Just a little punch and rum.  Now I know why when making the drinks he said you better take this one.
See ya.
