Cruise Day #27 - Nawiliwili, Kauai

We arrived this morning to partly cloudy skies and a forecast of on/off rain throughout the day.


We have been to Kauai many, many times and with the on/off rain predicted for today, we decided it was a great day for more shopping!

We took the free shuttle to the Kukui Grove Shopping Center.  The shopping center has a Target and a Ross-for-Less as their anchor stores.  And, right behind and across the street from the shopping center there is a Costco.

We also picked up the large Cholula two-packs for some staff members in the dining room.  They've tried the Cholula we brought from home and really liked it.

We made our way back to the shopping center and as hard as she tried, Debbie made ZERO purchases!  I could tell she was not happy!  We ran into our Maitre'd, Joachim, as we were walking back to the shuttle bus and rode back to the ship with him.

We will now have five consecutive sea days as we head back home to Los Angeles.  Hopefully, we will have calmer seas.
