2023 Hawaii Vacation - Day 7

Hello!  Thanks for stopping by Thinking Out Loud Thursday.  Today I'm thinking about our final day of vacation in Hawaii.  It's taken me a while to recap the entire stay, but today is the finale!

Day 7 being our last day there, we decided to spend it hanging around our resort, Aulani.  It was a wonderful way to soak up the sun and relax before heading back to reality.  

I really can't say enough about Aulani!  Disney did their magic at creating an amazing place full of beauty and fun.  Around every corner, there was something that makes you stop in your tracks and appreciate the sight.  

We got downstairs early and staked out our beach chairs.  They have a rule that if chairs are unattended before 8:00 am, they will remove any items left on the chairs and put them in lost and found.  So when we found our chairs, we stayed put!  We witnessed them carrying out this rule and were there when the people came back to their items being removed.   People watching at its' best!

One of the highlights from the day was our son and I getting our picture taken with Mickey.  I swear I don't know what it is, but seeing Mickey Mouse makes me totally giddy!

While we were relaxing in our chairs, we decided that maybe we should visit Mina's Fish House again that night for dinner.  Earlier in the week we had dined there and it was truly the best experience I had ever had in a restaurant.  Should we test fate and see if the second visit was as spectacular?  Heck yes!  

There are so many amazing this about this place.  One of them was the sound of the conch shell blowing at sunset.  

I could have sat looking at the view from our table forever!  Just the whole experience there is outstanding.  When we go back to Hawaii, this will definitely be a place I want to revisit.

The next morning, we were up early to pack up and get to the airport.  It was a long travel day to get back to St. Louis through Phoenix, but it was worth every single second to have had a vacation like we had in Hawaii!
