Post Wedding Sunday

I was absolutely determined that I was going to swim at some point in this trip. I didn't swim at the first hotel because I didn't have anything to put a wet suit in, and yesterday was too full of other activities. So I put my suit on and went down to the pool.

The pool was crowded and it wasn't very good for actual swimming, so I walked around in it and did a few exercises. Then I was hungry so I went to one of the outdoor tables and ordered the cheapest thing on the menu for breakfast. It was a bowl of fruit and it was $15.00.

I knew my sister was leaving today so I texted her and she came down and shared a breakfast with me. We had a nice visit. Among other things, she said that since she was only there for two days, she didn't qualify for the "wedding rate" and she paid the same for two days as she would have paid for three days, but she had a nicer room.

People were coming down to the pool, but my sister left for the airport, and I went back to the room. I thought our daughter (the grooms mother) had reserved a cabana, so Bob and I went down to the pool together, but the family and friends were just on some of the beds beside the pool. They were ordering snacks, so I ate some of the food. Then it was suggested that we go up to Carol's room (Carol was the officiant who did the wedding ceremony and she is a friend of the family). So I did that. Bob went back to the room as he said he didn't need to be with a lot of drunks.

Carol had a nice room with balconies on two sides. I talked to some of our son-in-law's family and then we played a game called Catch Phrase. It is a timed game with teams and you have to guess the phrase on the game piece. My first one was goldfish and I said "The snack that smiles back" and they guessed it right away. If the timer goes off while the device is in your hand, the other team gets a point.

We decided to go to Benihaha for dinner. We Ubered over - the guy that picked up our group had a neon sign on the dashboard that said Uber. There were a lot of us. Enough for two tables. Bob didn't go - his excuse was as above. I actually think the Benihaha around here is better.

Food getting prepared

The guy did not remember what we had to eat - I asked for white rice, and I got chicken fried rice like everyone else did, but it was good.

It was just as well that Bob didn't go because we did not eat until quite late. Rob and his wife and I Ubered back to the hotel.
