After the breakfast buffet — Hsuan got us a package covering two of our breakfasts per day — we spent the day at the pools. The Grand Hyatt has two pool systems. Apart from an upper, adults-only pool, the main pool system features a lazy river, a water slide, and a large lower array of interconnected pools, with a number of hot tubs scattered about. Between that pool system and the ocean is another “saltwater lagoon”, which is really just a very large saltwater pool made to look like a lagoon.
We spent our day with chairs on the beach at the saltwater lagoon, but we divided our swimming time between all the pools. I found out that if I go down the water slide on my back, I might hit the bottom of the pool at the exit on my coccyx, which still hasn’t fully healed from the backpacking trip.
Dinner was at Keohi’s Paradise at the Poipu Shopping Village, a short drive away. Keohi’s has two separate restaurants, a formal side and a burger side. We ate at the burger side. After dinner, finally tired of Hsuan not knowing the difference between sunglasses for guys and sunglasses for girls, we went to a Sunglasses Hut and got W a pair of Ray-Ban aviators.
