We made 5 YRS!

"Happy anniversary!" After five years, we finally did something on April 14th! Of course we didn't put it off for just any reason... Last year it was someone else' anniversary party. The year before that, Gary had a two-day workshop. But even that was nice, we just ordered pizza and ate it at home. But this year, we both had the day and night off!

Gary thought that since we loved the horse-back riding in the Bahamas, we should keep the animal-thing going. He said, "Hey the Mainlanders get to swim with the dolphins, why can we?" So thats just what we did.
The one and only, Wolphin!
This is Kekaimalu. She's hapa-whale, hapa-dolphin. One starry night, the two breds crossed on their own and this little Wolphin was born... well she's not little anymore. She's 26 years old!

Most of the time cross breds are sterile but this one had a baby girl 7 years ago! She is still the only known wolphin in the world.
Our dancing trainers.



hey don't be jealous

We got to do what the trainers do

Muuuah















 
we even got a push-off!
She's being foot-pushed by one dolphin...
...We had two!
one wolphin and one dolphin
Wolphin (bigger, darker) on the left,  dolphin on the right.
After spending the day with the dolphins... It was my turn. That was the deal, he planned the day and I plan the night.

So we dressed up and drove to the Waikiki Aquarium.

When Gary saw that the aquarium was closed, He asked, "Ok who's picking us up?" Thats when a white stretch limousine pulled up and the driver opened the door. This was Gary's first limo ride.
We brought our own champagne and chocolate covered strawberries

After a nice ride on the town, the limo dropped us off at the New Otani Hotel where we had reservations.

Our appetizers: scallops
and the crab cakes.
After dinner, we headed to the Diamond Head Theater. The play was Titanic The Musical. It was awesome! It was based more on the actual event than the movie.
Best date ever!!! Happy 5th!!!
